one drive is stuck on looking for changes forever!
Hey,My one drive is stuck on looking for changes forever! Please help me fix this isssue! I noticed It keeps opening random instances of onedrive and when trying to open them they just close I feel something stuck there...https://imgur.com/a/hXVhCgS
- Same, I had temporarily fixed this by clearing everything and then syncing to a new target folder, but it has now started failing to sync again.
It also appears to sync one way (add a file or folder to online it shows up in desktop but not vice versa )
I'm actually syncing with 2 different tenants. One works fine the other continues to be a thorn in my side.

Then resyncing a single OneDrive folder to a new destination folder.
This video saves you having to unsync and re locate folder etc. One cmd prompt and mine was done
