Microsoft’s „Open in App“ feature facilitates seamless transitions between browser-based work and legacy applications, enhancing productivity and workflow flexibility. Users can easily access this feature from their browser’s context menu, initiating the launch of desktop applications for editing or viewing selected files stored in OneDrive or SharePoint.
Compatibility with major web browsers and operating systems ensures accessibility across diverse platforms. Microsoft’s ongoing development efforts aim to expand capabilities, further bridging the gap between modern browser applications and traditional desktop software.
