Resolution

Follow the steps in this section carefully. Serious problems might occur if you modify the registry incorrectly. Before you modify it, back up the registry for restoration in case problems occur.

To fix this issue. install one of the following updates:
Note

Before you apply this update, make sure that you create a Group Policy Object (GPO) to add a new DWORD registry key EnableDelayPostingOfDeferredCOMEvents and set the value to 1 in the path:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Office\16.0\Lync

Alternatively, you can enable this by creating a custom policy entry and add it to the client policy:

$x = New-CsClientPolicyEntry -Name "EnableDelayPostingOfDeferredCOMEvents" -Value "true"
Set-CsClientPolicy -Identity "<ClientPolicyName>" -PolicyEntry @{Add=$x}

Lync 2013 was upgraded to Skype for Business in April 2015.
