Files stored within Teams are generally stored in SharePoint or in OneDrive. So it could still be a OneDrive ‘sync issue’ under the hood. Can you check if the file that’s being edited resides in the user’s Teams Chat Files folder on their OneDrive?
When I read the similarities with the OneDrive issue, that was the first thing i checked - they are definitely in a Team, not a OneDrive (I checked the associated site)
- Okay. So we can rule that out. Leaves the only other thing I can think of, namely has the underlying SharePoint folder been synced with OneDrive. So did you also look for the file if it exists anywhere else in the user’s OneDrive? Can’t really think of anything else anymore 😞
