OneDrive Context Menu Missing on Windows 11
OneDrive Context menu missing Hi guys, I’m having some issues regarding OneDrive and it’s Context Menu not being present on files. Environment: Windows 11 23H2, Intune managed OneDrive Build: 25.005.0112.30003 (64-bit) Affected users: all I tried all the fixes I could find on the Internet, but none have helped. Devices don’t have issues with synchronization, they only have an issue with the Context Menu missing. I can only see Always Keep on this Device and Free Up Space. Even if I press Show More Options, only the same only two previously mentioned appear. Is there anything else which I could have missed? Intune policies – no one seems to control such a thing, the context menu. Is there really not a known fix for this issue? 1. UAC control - ⦁ How to change the User Account Control policies to allow OneDrive context menus - Microsoft Support In my case, both explorer and onedrive are with No, at the Elevated status According to the above article, the following Local Security policies are in place: 2.

I’ve went and added it manually, for both current user and all users, nothing has changed. 3. Fresh install of OneDrive, downloaded from ⦁ Download the OneDrive App for PC, Mac, Android, or iOS – Microsoft OneDrive – no luck 4. Reinstalling OneDrive with /allusers parameter – no luck. Had a look through HKRoot\* - nothing I did made a difference. I can see that other users are complaining of this issue to this day - Windows 11 File Explorer context menu missing View Online and Version - Microsoft Community Options OneDrive not visible in File Explorers context menu - Microsoft Community
External Sharing in OneDrive and SharePoint
Hello, some users have external sharing permissions. I need to create a rule and policy to track which files they are sharing and with whom. I checked via Purview, an alert came through, but I can't see who the files were shared with, and the main issue is that those users don't have external sharing permissions. We have checked many ways but could not understand what we need to do.
Share a link - default to view rather than edit
Every time I create a link to share with someone, the default option is that anyone with the link can "edit". Can I make it so the default is that anyone with the link can "view"? There are only a few rare instances where I want people with the link to be able to edit.
Problem with editing files in Onedrive in a SharePoint library linked to in Onedrive
Problem with editing files in Onedrive in a SharePoint library linked to in Onedrive Since yesterday, all employees have been reporting that they cannot edit files in a SharePoint library linked to in Onedrive. When employees edit files or add files, an error message appears stating that file access is denied. You must provide administrator permissions. This problem only exists when accessing files in Onedrive. This problem does not exist in SharePoint itself. There the files can be edited as usual. What could be the cause here?Onedrive not uploading photos from my phone since early April 2025
Hello! I have a Samsung Galaxy S23 ultra and 2 Windows PC's. Since I purchased the Samsung phone I set Onedrive to upload photos through the "Camera upload" option NOT the "Gallery sync". If the phone is a Samsung, "Camera upload" button will be automatically hidden. But still, it still uploads photos if "Gallery sync" is switched off. Since I purchased the S23, "Gallery sync" I always kept it switched off. I don't want to use "Gallery sync" for 2 reasons : On my Windows PC I get duplicated photos, each photos are in : "\OneDrive\Pictures\Camera Roll" AND in "\OneDrive\Pictures\Galerie Samsung\DCIM\Camera" I don't like the path "\OneDrive\Pictures\Galerie Samsung\DCIM\Camera". When all my photos are in "\OneDrive\Pictures\", I think it's better organized. So even if "Gallery sync" was switched off and "Camera upload" is hidden, everything was working well since 2023 and my PC got all photos from my phone. Until the second of April 2025 when suddenly it stopped syncing. I think there was a OneDrive Android app update on the same day. How can I get my "Camera upload"? Also I think Microsoft should be users the choice between "Camera upload" and "Gallery sync", and both options should be visible. Thanks GZ3 file limit error in Personal Vault in spite of 1TB family subscription
I am having issues with my Personal Vault on One Drive. Its giving me error that I have hit 3 files limit in the Personal Vault on One Drive. In order to use more than 3 files , I have to upgrade to a 1TB plan. I am already a part of the Family Subscription and have 1 TB of space. I have just used 46GB of 1TB. Support is barely able to help me. Best they could do was tell me to logout and login. I have uninstalled and reinstalled my One Drive, and after setting up the Personal Vault, I am seeing the same issue. On 1TB , I can save as many files on Vault but I cant do for some reason now. It was working fine for last so many years but just today it broke after I edited and saved a file. Family subscription with 1TB allows unlimited files on Personal vault but basic plan allows only 3 files. Please help if anyone has a solution.
OneDrive on Mac: OneDrive folder always opens at startup - How can I stop this?
Hello, I run the latest version of OneDrive (Version 24.132.0701.0001) on a Mac running macOS 14.5. When I start a session, the OneDrive folder always opens. How can I stop this? I want a "silent" run of OneDrive... I couldn't find any option in the preferences for this... By the way, I have the same " issue " with Windows10 and Windows11. (I consider it an issue, but maybe it's not considered an issue by Microsoft...) Many thanks in advance for any help.😅 OneDrive Upload/Download Speed Help
Does anyone know of how I can improve my OneDrive download speeds? I cannot get my computer to download from OneDrive faster than 3.5-4.7Mbps. I've ensured my OneDrive settings do NOT limit my downloads I went so far as to plug my computer directly into my modem; even with 350Mpbs download and 650Mbps upload - still limited to really sub-4.0Mbps download speed from OneDrive. I understand my laptop hardware isn't limiting anything: CPU - 11th gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-1135G7 @2.40GHz Memory - 2x 16gb DDR4 Thank you for any and all recommendations, exploratory questions, or knowledge sharing!!!
Does OneDrive Photos have face grouping like Google Photos?
Hi everyone! I've been using OneDrive Photos for a while and I was wondering if there's any feature that groups photos by face, similar to what Google Photos offers. In Google Photos, I can see all the pictures of a specific person automatically grouped by their face. Is there a way to do the same in OneDrive, or is this feature planned for future updates? Thanks in advance for your help!
