Automatic office file locking - does it work? next steps?

I can confirm that it still doesn鈥檛 work for us.

Server version: 27.1.3
Client: Windows 10 22H2
Desktop client : 3.10.1

The calls for M365 are also getting louder and louder because we are doing project work and the conflicts are simply getting out of hand in the teams.

I had a meeting with Nextcloud GmbH last week about switching to the Enterprise version and they assured me in the call that file locking would work in any case. I also informed them that it doesn鈥檛 work in my private environment nor in our enterprise environment.

I read today that you should sync the hidden files to get the .lock files. That was new to me (although logical). But that doesn鈥檛 seem to be the solution either?
