Microsoft Excel received two improvements in this build. We fixed an issue where Excel would close unexpectedly when opening UNC files that have invalid file attributes (creation time, modified time, etc.). We fixed an issue where decimal and thousands separators settings carryover when copying a chart from Excel and pasting into Word., Microsoft explains in the changelog.

 

Microsoft Outlook client also received two important fixes. As per the official changelog, We fixed an issue that caused users to be unable to specify how long they wanted to allow access for when starting a mail merge from Word, resulting in them getting excess prompts. We fixed an issue that caused a Outlook to close unexpectedly for users of Redemption based Add-ins..
