Switching Google Photos to OneDrive - is metadata preserved?
I saw some YouTube videos on the process and the comments complained about how the metadata was not transferred over. My main concern is the 'Date Taken' as I wish the photos to be sorted in the correct order.James16May 08, 2026Copper Contributor62Views0likes1CommentOneDrive newbie
I have resisted using OneDrive for years because way back then it took photos from an amazing vacation off my phone before I was done editing them on my phone. I swear I did not have it set to automatically backup if I was running out of space on my phone, but that's what the customer service person said. And I can't batch download them back to my phone (to my knowledge), just one at a time. Why would a home user want to use OneDrive? Every time I try to open OneDrive to delete files there (just to keep it clean, and yes, not use it) it immediately starts synching to my computer, and if I stop that, I can't see my pictures on OneDrive. It says I have to be connected or something like that. Again, you can tell I'm a newbie because I'm not even sure what to do with it. Any information and advice would be incredibly welcomed. Thank you.JlperkinMay 08, 2026Copper Contributor49Views0likes1CommentMy previous OneDrive post was incorrectly flagged as spam

All of the sudden, any shared links from OneDrive are not allowing people to download the files. It just gives them a .zip of "OneDrive-2024-02-15.zip" that contains 2 text files. The 2 files are "Download Errors.txt" & "OneDrive_1.txt" and just say there was a problem downloading the file. I have moved files to different folders, renamed them. Nothing works. This is the first time in 5 years this has happened, I have always used the Share links with no issues. The only way it works is if I zip the files ahead of time and share the link to the zipped file.

I cannot sign in to the Memories section in the Photos App even though it shows my OneDrive folders in the AppSolvedericnoble1991May 01, 2026Copper Contributor449Views0likes6CommentsNo way of running OneDrive on Windows Server 2019?
I'm running an instance of Windows Server 2019 on Amazon AWS, and need to sync some files. Apparently Windows Server 2019 comes with no traces of OneDrive (even though the OneDrive webpage recognizes my web client as Windows 10 and assures me that it should be installed), so I'm trying to install the app manually. I've downloaded OneDriveSetup.exe (from onedrive.live.com), but the system ignores it when I try to run it, ie. nothing happens... I'm close to tear out my hair, what is happening?SolvedpersonalitysonApr 30, 2026Copper Contributor121KViews0likes17CommentsOneDrive 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.magluApr 29, 2026Brass Contributor344KViews7likes61Comments
