Visio files saved in OneDrive cause UPLOAD BLOCKED error
Penrynian I'm seeing the same issue very frequently at the moment, whereas it would be rare usually. My more common issue used to be the Visio file becoming read-only. I'm hoping that if enough people report this, then perhaps we have evidence for Microsoft to take action.
This has been happening to our users as well.
One PC has Visio Standard 2016 and cannot sync or upload .VSDX files to SharePoint or OneDrive.
One PC has Visio Standard 2019 and cannot sync or upload .VSDX files to SharePoint or OneDrive.
Microsoft needs to fix this.
- Currently have users in my organisation that are getting this issue as well. I did do some google-fu and found this exact issue here:

I have also raised this issue as a ticket with an O365 support tech - will post the outcome of that here (If they found anything different/do find a fix)
Has anyone attempted a reinstall of visio? I got one of my users to do this, and Visio was working as expected, however this was short lived - only lasted a week!Thanks for your input Anas_Hussain
I have a call later today (24th) with the MS support person who is looking into this.
I'll update this thread afterwards.
You referred to another thread from 2018, it made me think I have the same issue.
I used to have a VERY old version of Visio, I think it was 2003-2010.
I uninstalled it when I got the new Visio Pro as an add-on to O365.
I'm wondering if this is the root cause and reinstalling it may help.
Mmmmm 🙂
- Did you hear back from MS about this one? 🙂
Chuck Alexander What makes you say that UK users are not affected? I just looked out the window and all the cars appear to be driving on the left hand side of the road .....
- Ha! I just thought UK users were not affected because my supervisor in the UK was not experiencing the issue.
Of course all Visio users worldwide who are affected should be fixed 😊.
I hope Microsoft fixes it soon.Chuck Alexander Ah, that makes sense!
The support company I use hasn't heard of this situation, and I would say they're usually quite up to speed with Microsoft issues.
I wonder just how widespread this is.
Most odd I woke up this morning, with a burning question mark over Obamacare. Fixing this issue seems so much more straight forward than that surely? #UKO365LivesMatterToo
