Visio files saved in OneDrive cause UPLOAD BLOCKED error
ParryFen, Penrynian , I'm just chiming in with a me too as well from Australia. in my instance my account has a visio plan 2 license. also cropped up incidentally around the end of last year, but I only realised it's a persistent issue today. things I've excluded/looked at in my testing:
- not a sign-in/sign-out issue. removing re-adding onedrive or sharepoint accounts makes no difference
- not a software update issue (stable release , updated to 2101)
- the problem happens whether I access a file via Link to online sharepoint, or directly on disk, pointing to the local copy of the vsdx file.
- in my instance, I don't think I've ever loaded this file on any other system, (made myself, not shared with others) so I don't think it's a sharing issue.
- during one test cycle, I got a security prompt from Visio before opening the file using a direct sharepoint link, so I'm wondering if there's a a permissions or security issue underlying this...
armen-iptel, I've had this same problem on and off since I started using Visio Plan 2, currently v2101. I access files through Sharepoint with a local sync to File Explorer. I had the error opening the local copy. I also logged into O365 and opened it in the browser and then chose to open the file with the desktop app from there. Same error. I closed Visio and clicked "free up space" on the context menu in file explorer to delete the local copy. Then I double clicked the cloud copy which opened in the desktop app and, this time, no error.
siuc_me Just tried that and it did not work for me
