Problem solved: I had serveral blue screen incidents on a Dell Latitude 5490 Laptop using Office 365 - 2022 (Build 14931.70764) and Win 10 (21H2 Build 19044.2132). After approx. 10 blue screen incidents I got the 0x8002802B message.

I used the repair feature of Office 365/ new Installation feature. Afterwards OGCS worked well as before. Obviously one or more Office files where corrupted caused by the system breakdown/ blue screen. No additional registry hacks (cleaning, deleting keys etc.) were necessary.

I’m happy that OGCS ist running again. I appreciate it very much.
