OneDrive is updating files...

 

This is after a clean Windows 10 install.  It's been like this for over 24 hours.

    We don't know in advance what your OneDrive configuration is. If you have OneDrive installed on multiple devices then it will be syncing updates via the cloud across all those devices, including any documents you have shared with edit rights to other people.

    Try the OneDrive troubleshooter (easy to find online) and also test turning off any other local services like antivirus, VPNs that may be inhibiting sync

    Halfway expecting the result of processing 5,800 changes is to format my entire account here 🤔

      Can't offer any advice without knowing size and volume of files, network speeds, how many files have been shared or are synced to other devices....

        Thank you for your reply. There is about 860MB of data. I am not sure how other devices are involved as (as I understand it) it is just between the OneDrive server and this PC.  Please let me know what I have misunderstood.

         

        I will say that the activity seems low:
