Editing Documents
Is anyone else experiencing glitches with Document Editor? Multiple users at my company aren't able to edit, and clicking Edit actually downloads the file. Is there a known issue with this?

Hi Emily, I'm sorry to hear about that experience! There aren't any known issues, so looks like some further troubleshooting could help here. I'm going to create a Support ticket on your behalf, and our team will be on it in no time. :)
Anastasia, thank you, but this issue seems to have resolved on its own.
Emily, thanks for letting me know! If any other questions come up, I'll be happy to help. :)
I am experiencing this issue as well. Dowloaded the app thinking that would solve the issue, but still unable to edit.
Hi Holly, thanks for posting. I've created a ticket to our Support Team can investigate this for you. You'll receive an email confirmation of this ticket soon. If there's anything in the meantime, please let me know 👍
Still happening a year later
Hi Mike, I apologize for the delayed reply here. I see that our Support Team is working with you on this, but please let me know if there's something else we can help with.
Is there any resolution? This started happening all of a sudden today. Worked through tech support and tried their fix, and now they're insisting that it's a white-listing issue. I find that unlikely since it worked one moment and then didn't work the next. Anyone find a fix?
OK, everyone. I tried uninstalling, reinstalling, and rebooting multiple times, and still the document editor wouldn't work, BUT in the morning, everything had "healed." I don't know what that is yet, but I'm going to find out and post it. In the meantime, try this (from tech support).

Hi Stephen,
Thank you for all the details!
Please try uninstalling the Document Editor once again, then restart your PC and install it again. After the reinstallation, make sure that the two corresponding processes are running in the Task Manager. Let us know if you can edit documents in Wrike at that point.
If not, please check whether doceditor.wrike.com is available:
1. Open the Command Prompt (instructions how to do it are here)
2. Execute a command: ping doceditor.wrike.com.
If doceditor.wrike.com is available you will see something like this:
If doceditor.wrike.com is not available you will see the following error message:
Some additional questions that will help us clarify the situation:
1. What file types are affected? Does the issue occur only to .doc files?
2. Are you a local administrator or the policy is strictly set by the system administrator? Since the issue started to happen recently - was any policy changed recently on your end? Please consult your IT Admin whether this might be the case.
I look forward to hearing back from you!
Best regards,
Annie
