Yes, I have exactly the same problem. I have embedded about 40+ different URLs to Powerpoint presentations for students and teachers on my GoogleSite. Up until recently everything worked fine. Since ca 1 week not a single one of these powerpoints shows up anymore - only blank space. I have thousands of people around the world using these resources for teaching. It is very frustrating.

I also have tried all of the steps you describe in your post - incognito window, regenerating embed links, using different file links, etc. All to no avail.

    Masonator12​ Agree - very frustrating for an important feature to go down like this for so long! 

    I have lodged a support ticket with the OneDrive support team (MSODSupport @ microsoftsupport.com) with all the details and a screen share showing the blank screen and the error message showing the issue is on Microsoft's side. 

    Hopefully this leads to a fix without much further delay.
