Check In Versioning Issues

Question

Hi,
We have document libraries with versioning enabled to allow major and minor (draft) versions. We have a workflow (slightly modified version of the default approval workflow) which triggers when a major version is published.
On some PCs (all running Windows 7/Office 2013) when we select to check in a document at a major version, it ignores the selection & checks in at a minor version instead.
I should point out that this behavior is experienced with the built-in approval workflow as well.
Any help would be very much appreciated.

Hi,
I understand that on some computers you always get a minor version checked-in regardless of whether you select minor or major.
To troubleshooting the issue, I suggest as below:
On the non-working computer, please use the Approval or site admin to check in the document. If it works, the issue is caused by the user permission.
On the non-working computer, please run the Repair of the Office 2013 to install  the
Microsoft SharePoint Foundation support.
On the non-working computer, please enable SharePoint OpenDocumentsClass in Internet Explorer with the following steps: Click
Tools->Go to Manage Add-ons-> In the Show box, click All add-ons-> In the
Name column, click SharePoint OpenDocumentsClass, click Enable.
Thank you for your understanding.
Best Regards,
