Sophos Authentication Agent office file association

Dear team,

We are using android authentication app SophosAuthenticationApp for firewall authentication for android devices. But the problem is whenever we try to open any office file, say .docx or .xlsx file from device, the authentication app is trying to open those files which is not possible to. I have to uninstall the authentication app just to open those office files from the device.

It seems this is the bug in the app.

Kindly help.

  • 1. While importing the certificate in app, the .scc file directly got imported into app. Android UI hadn't asked me how to open the .scc file.

    2. I understand what you are trying to suggest. But while opening any office file, android UI is not asking which app I should use to open that file (...and I remember, I never selected 'Always' from the pop-up). Android is directly opening the file into Agent app by itself. I tried it by re-installing the Agent app multiple times. Somehow, Android is defining the file type association by itself. There is no any option into app manager to clear the filetype assiciation.

    Hope you have understood my concern.

  • Today I again found another file type which is getting open in Agent. It's .xapk file.
