Improvements and fixes

  • Includes translations for several terms in multiple languages to improve the accuracy of meaning.
  • Adds telemetry that will help root the cause how rendering stops working when the system is running low on memory.
  • Fixes the following issues:

    • Assume that you open an Excel worksheet that's being used by another user and select to be notified when it's available. Then, you make changes to the worksheet when it is available for edit. In this situation, you are prompted to discard or save the worksheet as a new worksheet because another user has changed it. This issue occurs even if other users have not changed the worksheet.
    • An Office add-in that overrides the default functionalities, such as copy or paste, and uses a delay loading can't be loaded in Office 2013 applications.
    • When you open an IRM-protected document by using the Edit permission in Word 2013, the Edit Document option on the View tab which should be available is disabled.
