Hello, I am having some issues with Excel online where changes that are made revert back to the original text. I have 2 videos of this happening, but am unable to upload to this forum. Essentially I am changing a cell's text, and when I press "Enter" it reverts back to what was there before my change.

    You may upload your videos to a cloud Drive and share us a link for that.

    Is there anyone using some workbook? It could be someone using same cell.

    Check if your changes history is recorded in "Show changes"

    Hello,

    Yes I have multiple people editing this workbook. However, each person is editing different parts of the workbook in sequence, meaning person 2 won't make a change until person 1 is done with their edits (usually a day or 2 apart), same with person 3 won't make changes until person 2 is done with their edits, ect...

    In excel online, you can see where individuals are working, by a highlighted cell with the individual's name/initials. In the videos, there are no other individuals working on the same cell.

    Below is the link to the edit reverting changes: https://youtube.com/shorts/AXbQFVy---E?feature=sharehttps://youtube.com/shorts/-30oWPOQHac?feature=share

    I seems bug. For such issue, I'd suggest you raise a support ticket to Microsoft.

    Please contact your admin/IT department create a support ticket via Microsoft 365 Admin Center> Support> New service request. That support team there will have the correct channel and resources to help you investigate more and find what exactly the reason has caused this situation.
