So my question is: Why doesn't the 'edit' button next to a file not allow one to update the file? The file
in question in this instance was a MS .docx file.?
But, since perhaps I am overlooking something that's part of the process of an editing a file, any suggestions
or explanation for how to do so from the files page accessed from a Group.io's sidebar button would be very
much appreciated.

?Paul,
"Edit" only refers to changing the filename and description.
To edit the contents of the file, you will need to download the file and update it with an application program that is compatible with the contents of the file. For your example, you would need to use a program such as Microsoft Word.
Perhaps it would have been less confusing if the term used was "Edit Properties" rather than "Edit file".
