ISSUE
Apple released macOS 10.12 Sierra on 9/20/2016 and macOS 10.13 High Sierra on 9/26/2017. Some customers are reporting Office 2016 for Mac applications are closing unexpectedly, or crashing when an Office application is launched, or when the computer is moved between Wi-Fi networks (e.g. moving a laptop from home to work).
Customers in a workplace or school network configuration who wish to upgrade to macOS should update to the latest Apple supported release of macOS High Sierra for improved stability specific to proxy networks.
