I have a user who is getting a 500 error while logging in to Office365 with a valid account using different browsers (Chrome and Edge). It's giving her an X-OWA-Error System.FormatException message for X-OWA-Version 15.20.4129.28

Issue started on Monday, and she can login normally with the Outlook desktop app and on the phone app.

    Hi @David At Auburn ,
    In order to better solve this issue, I want confirm with you the following points:

    1. Are you a pure cloud environment? All mailboxes are in Exchange online, and there is no on-premsies Exchange server.
    2. Did the user change any related settings of mailbox?
    3. Please share the complete message error information with us, please pay attention covering the personal information.

    Please check if the user's OWA function is disabled.
