office 365 in windows hvm

[boistordu]

Qubes OS version:

R.3.2

Affected TemplateVMs:

HVM win 7

---

because of the lack of windows to recognize the connectivity and that the system is connected to internet, it seems that the connection module of office once installed, can't recognized that windows is connected and so it cannot connect me to my account to retrieve my notes on onenote for example.
I never encountered this issue just after the installation and since the network in win7 hvm is known issue, I guess it's been related.
Is there any attempt to resolve the pronlem of the network not being identified ?

Does network in that VM works at all (regardless of status icon)?

yes it works.
The problem I think is that office relies on status of the network manager,not the network itself. So this "cosmetic Problem" is not a cosmetic problem since App may rely on the status of this module.
I'm sure you can easily reproduce the bug if you have an office 365 or family pack or whatever. And maybe in the software world there are other softwares who rely on that too.
