This isn't the place for your particular question.

It looks like you have an issue with Microsoft's software, not Apple's software.

Also, PLEASE don't use random tags for your question. What does this have to do with "Debugging"? What does it have to do with "Forums Feedback"?

This isn't the place for your question. Please use the Apple Support Forums for your product issue, or contact Microsoft where the software issue seems to be.
