Failed to upload your file MS Forms
Hi, one hour ago i was able to upload files in my form, now i receive the following message: Tried different types of files in different browsers, won't help.
Cause for this is because you've deleted the destination folder where you save the originally attachments. Also don't delete the folder in a upper layer.
So the folder structure probably looks like: Apps\Microsoft Forms
Once the folder is deleted, you have to delete your 'upload question' and generate a new one for having a sync with the right folder.

I did NOT delete any of this folders, why should i? This folders are created automatically when create a upload-question to store the answer-files .... so of course i will not delete such a folder in onedrive. The right folders exists - the problem also ...
look at this forum ... the same problems ...
best regards
Hmm weird, it seems to be an issue from the last 2/3 months.
Try to give your colleagues access to the right folder, and then try to upload it again. What I already discovered, is that if you try a new solution regarding this problem, you should generate that question again. It has to do something with the folder destination, at least for me.
Other solution we will implement is, depending on your situation, is to upload any file related things on Teams, and copy a hyperlink in the Form. Then you don't have any upload questions anymore. Was the best solution for us, also as we integrated the form in Microsoft Flow.
Good luckI have the same problem.
I'm a math teacher in Italy. With my class i have the same problem. I created a microsoft form that involves uploading files. I subsequently created a test activity on teams.
When the students found the activity and tried to fill in the form, they received the same message "file could not be loaded".
But if I give them the link to the microsoft form directly, they manage to load the file.
I don't understand the meaning of this thing: it's the same form!
In any case, I had to create a fake return activity on teams, where I put the link to the form. In this way we have circumvented the problem, but surely this is not the correct way to operate.
Why is there this problem?
PS: forgive my bad English
- good idea, your solution ... but all in all unsatisfactory
....
thanks
