A few weeks ago I used PDS to edit my comments - using the fork with the 5 second delay. Random pockets of older comments started reappearing after few days. I've been checking all 45 pages of my history every few days and editing the random comments that have reverted from the edited message. It seems like it has mostly stuck now.

I guessing there's probably some broken code/process somewhere that isn't always able to commit changes and once caches expire the comment returns.

There's a GPO to turn it off, but you'll need to download the latest Office GPO package. Here's a PowerShell script if you're running an RMM tool - it'll need to run as user:

Function SetRegistryKey($RegistryPath, $Name, $PropertyType, $Value){
    # Create the key if it does not exist
    If (-NOT (Test-Path $RegistryPath)) {
      New-Item -Path $RegistryPath -Force | Out-Null
    }  
    # Now set the value
    New-ItemProperty -Path $RegistryPath -Name $Name -Value $Value -PropertyType $PropertyType -Force
}

SetRegistryKey "HKCU:\Software\Policies\Microsoft\office\16.0\common\links" "BrowserChoice" DWORD "0"

Hey Jerry - I signed up on the 18th (same username) and validated my Email, but getting a "Your account is not active." error on login. Any ideas?
