I have developed an add-in on Microsoft Word. That add-in has a feature of opening new word document via a document URL using URL schema. However, after recent upgrade of version 2024 in Microsoft word this has stopped working for add-in and it also doesn't show any error why its not able to open the word document in a new window.
URL schema which I am using is - ms-word:ofe|u|<document_url>

And it would be great if you can share the code you use to open a new word document. Are you using the window.open() API?
