MicrosoftHi - I think this was mentioned on another thread yesterday, but this is just a bug and we're rolling out a fix for it now. You should see an update to the App Store version of OneDrive soon. Let us know if that doesn't resolve your issue.

Jack - I'm in the camp of having the Auto Save issues and I have the App Store version. Rather than uninstall / reset and install the standalone version, I'm choosing to wait for the hot fix.
1) How will I know that I have the updated version? I'm currently on Version 22.002.0103.0004. Is the hot fix a new version number? Do I need to restart my Mac in order for it to update?
2) Will this hot fix address the issue I have noted before - when saving a document and choosing "Online Folders" in the save as dialog... right now only my current business OneDrive account is listed as a possible location. By current - I mean that is the account that I'm signed into in my Office apps and on Office.com. But I have two other OneDrive accounts currently active and syncing - a second business account and a personal account - that I do not apparently have access to when using this Save As approach. That same limitation applies when I try to turn on AutoSave from a document - which I opened up from finder in one of my 3 OneDrive folders - the pop up dialog asks me to upload or copy the file to OneDrive but only gives me 1 out of 3 OneDrive locations as a target.
Hopefully that description makes sense.

The version with the fix is 22.002.0201.0005. It should be available in the App Store now. If you don't see it, it might take a few hours to show up to you, but it should come today. Let us know if that's not the case.

The fix should restore the behavior you had before, so I would expect it should address this issue. If not, let us know.
JackJack - I went to the App Store and updated OneDrive to the .0201.0005 version and AutoSave appears to be working now!
As to the other problem - I really don't know if that was an issue before. I only noticed it now because I was forced down that path due to AutoSave not working. Maybe it was always a limitation? The Save As Online file path can only know about the account you are currently logged in as?
For what it's worth - the "+ Add a Place" function does not work at all - I tried to add my personal one drive to the list and after signing in successfully it did not add to the list.
- Jack_NicholsHi djBuff303,
Glad to hear the update worked for you.
I'm not that familiar with the UI you posted, as it is owned by some folks on a different team. You might consider reaching out to our support to relay your experience with that dialog, as this looks like a bug in Office to me.

- It Is working great now. Thanks.
