Onedrive readonly (green locks)

Hi,

I am experiencing the same thing, even after making them optional, it doesn't solve the problem and the issue still persists. Microsoft rep also said that its not a solution that Microsoft suggests. Did you get any further luck with this?

Thanks.

Hi Megan,

What solution did you use to get this fixed?

I am not an expert but found my solution from posts above so 

All seems to be OK this morning

I have tried everything thats on the form with the Metadata Required filed option to be set as "Optional". Even Microsft working on it, but still the lock stays.

please help!!

This is all correct but still very annoying in my opinion.

I would really like to have required metadata but still have the option to sync my library.  

The locked read only files and folder started ONLY after change to Windows 10 - am using Sharepoint/Office 365 and Office 2016

The problem was a complete nightmare and have spent hours talking to Microsoft

Comments/pictures above really helpful

I set the following for each document library in Sharepoint

check in required - NO

Metadata (document type) required - NO

this worked and then I tested in reverse by turning the metadata as required - locks reappeared.  So reset and turned this off, synced again and all appears to be well

I did have to reinstsall One Drive as this stopped working but all seems good  now
