Microsoft has made all documents and OneNote Notebooks in Teams read-only to reduce the service load on Teams during the increased demand as everyone shifts to work from home.

You can only view files in Teams for now, or click on the eclipse (...) and select "Open in Browser" (or "Open in Desktop App" if you have the Office 365 version of Word installed).

Login on any browser

Go to Office 365 Portal and login with NUSNET ID and select Teams.
