Cannot see "Edit in Office" link

[ryanfinney]

I am using Chrome version 72+, with Windows 10 and Office 2016. 

When I go to the Attachments page, I see options for "Properties", "Edit", and "Delete", but no option for Edit in Office, which is a function my office planned on using heavily.

Hi @ryanfinney 

Which version of confluence do you use? 

With Version 6.11, the new way to edit files was coming and in this release, the edit button disappeared. But with version 6.14, the edit button appeared again.

I am using version 6.14. 
One of the biggest selling points I used with Confluence to my office was the ability to edit documents straight from Confluence (or specifically, having them open up in Word). We are unable to use the companian application due to strict desktop regulations that we must comply with (way outside of our control). 


I did find this workaround that worked and will allow us to successfully use Confluence in my office.
