However, the folder on my PC where I did a local sync to wasn't deleted and now I can't delete it in File Explorer. The error message is "The action can't be completed because the folder or a file in it is open in another program".
The folder has a file called ".849C9593-D756-4E56-8D6E-42412F2A707B" in it, and when I try and delete it the error is "The action can't be completed because the file is open in Microsoft OneDrive".
Any ideas please how on to delete these?

Do you have a O365 retention for OneDrive (SharePoint) ?
