Office Word App Behavior Protection Exploit Office WMI abuse blocked

[NotTechie]

WORD docs keep coming up with "Exploit blocked." Just started this week. These are docs saved to OneDrive and syncing with my Laptop. But right now I am accessing them from my desktop from "This PC." I don't think there is really an exploit, and just need to know if I need to correct a setting.

Hello @NotTechie

Open Malwarebytes, click the small gear on the top right and go to the Security tab.
Scroll down to the bottom and click the Advanced Settings button
Click on the Application behavior protection tab
Scroll down to "Office WMI abuse prevention" under MS Office and uncheck it.

That should correct the issue.

Thank you
