Please allow preview of password protected files in Teams.
Please allow editing of password protected files in Teams and Word/Excel online.
Please allow Teams to download password protected file. At the moment, the only way I found to download a password protected file shared in Teams is to open in Word/Excel and "save as". -

Is anyone at Microsoft reading these Uservoice suggestions?
This one is open for 3 years now, it is in the top 5 of requested features for Word online and seems a pretty basic thing. Why is nothing happening here? -

Hi Microsoft, this feature would be really handy on all Micosoft Office File Types.
FYI - you are able to do this with files on Google Drive and Google Docs which is handy.

and if you own the file they should allow you to open it without typing in a password

passwords and encryption are necessary to protect sensitive material. A system user eligible to access such information should not be precluded from so doing.

If I used word 2007 to encrypt a document (for example) and it is on OneDrive - a pop-up window allowing me to enter the password and access the document via word online would be great. Any technical difficulties in accomplishing this feat of programming mastery?

Please allow password protected documents to be opened online, as well as the ability to encrypt documents online. This would save me a lot of trouble.

When i try to open a protected document in OneDrive it opens the file in desktop word. It would have been convenient if we could open the protected files in drive itself.

Unable to open password protected docs. At least provide an option to save the file locally. Especially when I share a doc and send the link to somebody, they do not have any option to view the doc even if they know the password. If an option to download the file is available, recipients can open it in their desktop editor.
