Also, when I am in Word or Excel, and go to File 'Share', the options to email are once again greyed out.


Does anyone have any suggestions? I have searched for hours to a solution but have not found any. I did find a couple terminal commands, etc but those did not work either.


I look forward to any and all help here.


Thanks,
