Some of our systems aren't having any issues on 2104, but many are, this was a huge life saver. Thanks so much for posting it.

Some of you are rolling back to version 2103. That's fine. I have a few customers with the Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise, so I had to roll back to version 2102 due to differences between the channels. That's perfectly fine, too.
