OneDrive - Personal Vault issues
Hi,
I was archiving some old documents into the personal vault. I'm not sure if the vault auto-locked meanwhile, but OneDrive created a Personal Vault - <computername> folder and now I have files spread in this folder and in the folder the Personal Vault shortcut points to.
The problem is my OneDrive apps now is signaling a lot of sync errors and it's becoming unresponsive if I unlock the vault.
Can you please advise?
Thank you
