Hello,

Recently our company has adopted Microsoft Azure Information Protection.
After adopting it, robots which use excel application scope started failing.
We tried updating excel application, updating activities.

I checked the logs and robots produce this kind of error:

Unable to cast COM object of type 'System.__ComObject' to interface type 'System.Runtime.InteropServices.ComTypes.IConnectionPointContainer'. This operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID '{B196B284-BAB4-101A-B69C-00AA00341D07}' failed due to the following error: The requested object does not exist. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80010114).

Then I checked windows events and found a bunch of errors which are produced by UiPath. error message:

UiPath.Executor 19.10.1.0 
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80010108): The object invoked has disconnected from its clients. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80010108 (RPC_E_DISCONNECTED))
   at Microsoft.Office.Interop.Excel._Workbook.Close(Object SaveChanges, Object Filename, Object RouteWorkbook)
   at UiPath.Excel.WorkbookApplication.CloseCurrentWorkbook()

Our excel version is Excel 2013 (15.0.5189.1000) 32-Bit MSO (15.0.5172.1000)
Studio and robot version 19.10.1
Orchestrator 19.4.2

Anyone experienced similar issues?
