Missing OneDrive context menu in windows 10
- Oct 13, 2020
donreak Hi there,
Our documentation changes with time and the article I previously mention is one of them.
For the OneDrive missing context menu we have now this one - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/how-to-change-the-user-account-control-policies-to-allow-onedrive-context-menus-1f957672-848d-48bb-bfe8-5af828613211
Hope this helps
I solved this by finding "Edit group policy" from my start menu.
Then I clicked through Computer Configuration -> Windows Settings -> Security Options -> Local Policy -> Security Options.
Next, I enabled a few of the 'User Account controls' which were disabled and then restarted my PC. Can't say for sure which setting did the trick but it now seems to work.
I have all on the following enabled:
Admin Approval Mode for the Built-in Administrator account
Detect application installations and prompt for elevation
Only elevate UIAccess applications in Admin Approval Mode
Switch to the secure desktop when prompting for elevation
Virtualize file and registry write failures to per-user locations
Don't forget to restart the computer after that and then check OneDrive to see if it has worked.
