Protected View is a read-only Office mode for opening documents deemed as potentially unsafe where most editing features are disabled to protect the users' from threats.
Safe Documents - launched in private preview in February - uses Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) to scan documents opened in Protected view and block users from editing them until a verdict is available. Launch Microsoft Word, or any of the Office 2010 programs, and go to File – > Options – > Trust Center – > Trust Center Settings.Ĭlick “Protected View” here and deselect the option that says “Enable Protected View for Outlook Attachments.Microsoft today announced the general availability of the Office 365 Safe Documents security feature which expands the protection provided by Protected View by checking untrusted documents for risks and known threats. You can easily switch from the Protected View to Edit mode with a click but if you would like to permanently turn off that security setting such that all your future email attachments /web documents open in regular mode, here’s the required setting. In the Protected Mode, you are neither able to edit your documents nor can you send them to the printer. The same holds true for Word and PowerPoint files as well.
Microsoft Office 2010 includes a new “Protected View” that, by default, will open all Outlook attachments and documents downloaded from the Internet in “read-only” mode.įor instance, if a colleague has sent you a spreadsheet as an email attachment, when you double-click that file, it will only open as a read-only document inside Excel.
