I found them in the archive and moved them to the inbox, only now they are gone again,

Dear Charles,
<br />thank you so much for your help. I must update the given information a bit: When I posted this, I thought that only two docs were affected, but in reality there a more - yet, by far not all of them. I can open others, that are filed on that same external drive as well (in the same folder or in others), without any issues. All of them are docx.
<br />I worked on two of them on Dec 9 the last time with Word Microsoft 365, and all was fine. I sent these docs via email back then, but when I try to open them in that email, the same error message appears.
<br />Strangely enough, these docs can be easily opened by another email recipient (android), who tried to file it under a different file name and then sent it back to me, with no positive result, unfortunately. Just now, however, I decided to send the docs to another email address of mine, where I could open them and add a small modification, file them in the cloud and send them back to my inbox - and, gladly enough, it worked, I can open the documents without any issues. What on earth is the issue???
<br />Cheers, Denise
<br />

for future reference,
<br />despite you stating that symbolic links aren't supported in OneDrive, I managed to fix the issue.
<br />The problem was using actual symbolic links instead of junctions. e.g. mkdir /d instead of mkdir /j
<br />I removed my symbolic links to the folders and re-created them by letting OneDrive start syncing the folders in question, then exiting it. Some files were there, deleted them all. Re-created the junctions with mkdir /j, let OneDrive run again and check everything and now the problem is gone.
<br />Seems that junctions can handle soft links to folders better than symbolic links.

If your readers are able to change the way groups are displayed and have that change persist in your Sway, it seems that you have sent out an edit link meaning you've given them author permissions. If that is the case, you will want to open your Sway for
editing, open the Share menu, and reset the Sway so that all coauthors are removed - this will change the URL of the Sway, but you can just share that out again. Authors and viewers use the same link to open a Sway and if the user is not an author, they get
the read-only version of the Sway. The edit link should only be used to give someone author permissions.

If this is not the case, then I need a little more information to understand what is happening.

Office 2011 is quite inflexible with regard to Themes. IMHO, you're better off to stay with the Default Office Theme & use your own Paragraph & Character Styles to handle formatting.

You cannot select which fonts a Theme uses. The only option in Word, itself, is to choose one of the Themes selectable from the Themes button on the Home tab. Font pairings differ for each theme. Unfortunately, the only way to know which fonts are used by
any given Theme is to select the Theme, then open the Fonts menu to see what's being used.

The only customization available must be done in PowerPoint. There you can create your own Custom Theme by assigning Theme Colors of your choice, but even there you are restricted to using only the built-in font pairings for Theme Fonts... you can't specify
fonts of your own. Once the Custom Theme is saved it will be available in Word as well as Excel.

Full Theme customization has to be done in a Windows version of Office or by writing your own XML files.

I better switch to english language as you are using translation tools and they are a mess.
I've alerady answered, you haven't really read my issue. You are using translation sofware, this may be the resaon why you not understanding my issue. I've also explained already, all this "clicki clicki" stuff was tried with different support people already, we are far behind of this type of error analysis, my frustration level reached alerady an extreme level. The issue is somewhere on the backend. I really want that someone analyse the backend and explain me WHY ON ALL SYSTEMS (ALL = MACOS, iOS, WINDOWS, iPADOS) and different mail clients (WHAT IS WELL INDICATING THAT THE ISSUE APPEARS IN THE BACKEND ALREADY!!!!!) ALL MAILS FROM UNKNOWN RECIPIENS ALWAYS (ALWAYS MEANS ALWAYS) COMMING TO JUNK AND THIS ONLY (THIS MEANS 100% ONLY) FOR THE OUTLOOK.COM MAIL ACCOUNT - the 2 other mail accounts aren't showing this weird behaviour.
Honestly, my frustration again grown a bit more as i see, that here are people with 0 language skills trying to offer support via translation tools and they are completly failing, i have to repeat again and again the same and i have no hope for a resolution.
