Lost Recent Version of File From OneDrive
I made steady progress on my maths investigation and at one point I spent 3 hours working on it. I've revisited the file a few days later to find ALL the changes made in the second 2 hours completely gone. There aren't any recovered documents and upon revisiting I noticed Autosave turned OFF despite having the file saved to OneDrive and not manually turning it off. Version history tells me that the last saved change was after the first hour, completely missing out on the subsequent 2 hours of important progress. Is there ANY way to retrieve this (somehow unsaved) work? And if not what caused this?OttoPriebeJun 12, 2025Copper Contributor20Views0likes1CommentKFM - Silent Folder Move doesn't work until user selects it
I'm trying to set up Known Folder Move using OneDrive, but it's not doing it automatically when a user logs in. The user has to open OneDrive settings and manually start backup. I'm using OneDrive along with FSLogix office containers, with OneDrive caching enabled. I've configured OneDrive in GPO to silently sign-in, silently move, prompt to move, and prevent them from being moved back. I've installed OneDrive version 22.176.0821.0003 using setup.exe /allusers. These are my GPO settings: Silently sign in users to the OneDrive sync app with their Windows credentials: Enabled Silently move Windows known folders to OneDrive: Enabled Prompt users to move Windows known folders to OneDrive: Enabled Prevent users from redirecting Windows Known Folders to their PC: Enabled Use OneDrive Files On-Demand: Enabled But here is what is happening: User logs in desktop first time, and OneDrive silently logs in the user successfully. OneDrive does not migrate Known folders and does not prompt user. User must launch OneDrive client > Settings > Backup tab > "Start Backup". Then the OneDrive client informs the user that "Your IT department wants you to back up your important folders", and clicking "Start Backup" will start KFM correctly. It's my understanding that Silent Known Folder Move is supposed to be automatic without user intervention. I've checked the registry keys and all of them seem to be correct: But under HKCU\Software\Microsoft\OneDrive\Accounts\Business1, it shows the "kfmFoldersProtectedNow = 0" so it's not engaging something. So what do I need to do for Silent KFM to automatically work on first logon?MStrzJun 10, 2025Copper Contributor13KViews0likes2CommentsConta do OneDrive excluída

Onedrive usd to automatically put photos in files on the date the photo was taken. Now it just puts them in a file the date they are downloaded. Is there a way to insure the photos are downloaded into a file showing the date it was takenTony_obisoJun 10, 2025Copper Contributor553Views1like1CommentHow to see photo's and movies in the create-date order in OneDrive Photo
I moved all photo's and movies from Google Photo to OneDrive. However, movies from 2016 are listed first, whatever I try. It seems that there is a sort, but I cannot find that button. There is only a timeline on the right, but that one is bricked as well (showing movies that are CREATED in 2016 on top, in the 2024 section). OneDrive Photo is so STUPID to sort video's based on upload date? How stupid is that? I start to believe I can better stay with Google Photo .... Or anyone tell me how sort normal.djdehaanJun 10, 2025Copper Contributor5.3KViews0likes12CommentsOneDrive stuck on "signing in"
Hi, I'm trying to use Onedrive and Onenote, but it seems to be really terrible 50% of the time. Sometimes when I log on my pc, it says I have to log in, and in doing so, is stuck on a "signing in" loop, until it says some error code about me not having an internet connection. Here's what I've tried: 1. Close and open Onedrive 2. Removing auth from the pc and adding it again 3. Reinstalling Onedrive 4. Change Wi-Fi 5. Do a /reset in Windows run AND cmd 6. Update drivers 7. Install the newest Onedrive from the website 8. Try the app-version found in Windows Store What am I supposed to do? I don't want to restart my pc every time it doesn't work, that's a terrible fix.magluJun 10, 2025Copper Contributor290KViews6likes53CommentsHow do users default onedrive files to open in microsoft desktop applications.
Nowhere to action this in your browser interface. Selecting files by clicking on them simply opens the files in new browser windows. Setting 'open in app' as default in desktop applications has no effect. We do not want to have to select 'open > in app' on every single microsoft format file in a browser. Tested in latest version of modern browsers Firefox / Chrome / microsoft edge.

Hi there, Last week my PC got updates from MS for windows 10 , and after the reboot my Onedrive local client started doing weird things deleting folders and renaming them to names with -COMPUTERNAME behind them. My setup is as follows: I'm logged on to my own Onedrive In my Onedrive I have shared folders with data that other family members in a family subsciption shared with me. There is a lot of data in them, some have 660Gb of pics and videos. I added those shared folders to my Onedrive, so I can access them in my own explorer without logging on to another account. This setup has been working fine for years, up until this MS update... I noticed after the reboot that my Onedrive Personal client was deleting a lot of folders from the local Onedrive folder on my harddrive, but only the folders that have the shared offline data, they were in the recycing BIN. I tried to re-connect the Onedrive but nothing changed, the online view in my Onedrive was still intact , including the shared folders from other Onedrives, but locally these were gone. So at that point I saw a different file structure online compared to the one in my own Explorer. I then tried to restore them from the recycling bin, only to find out that Onedrive would rename them to 'ORIGINALNAME-WIN10' where WIN10 is my computername. It then started uploading all this data AGAIN to my online )storage, the 'shared (Gedeeld) folders were copied into my own drive with the label 'private' behind it, but that is absolutely not what should happen, my own drive would have been full within a day if I didn't break off this operation. Here you can see a screenshot of what was happening, while it was still 'syncing': I tried re-installing and re-connecting the Onedrive client, and also removing all the extra copies of the folders online AND offline, hoping it would resync the whole thing from the Original online shared folders. The shared folders just don't turn up anymore in my local view. Instead the Onedrive client started renaming even more shared folders that seemed untouched before, and uploading the contents to my own Onedrive.... So to make it absolutely clear what happened: the shared folders that were only in the Cloud didn't turn up locally anymore, the shared folders that were on both sides were renamed locally and copied back to the cloud as a new private copy folder (as you can see in the screenshot). Did MS change something with the last updates that forces shared data to actually be taking up space in your own Onedrive, where this was not the case before? Or is this just something that went corrupt on my own PC and can I fix it somehow? I can't imagine them changing something that has such an impact without any warning since it causes a lot of trouble for people using shared folders and also a LOT of network traffic if everyone with shared folders gets into these issues.... I hope some real expert on Onedrive can tell me what is going on, and esp. how to fix it? To be honest, this seems a PRETTY SERIOUS issue if other have it too... ;) MarcelTheDudeNLJun 07, 2025Copper Contributor927Views9likes14Comments
