Onedrive status icon folder stuck on Sync Pending in file explorer
Onedrive status icon folder stuck on Sync Pending in file explorer. Tried to delete hidden temp files but icon doesn't change. Any advice? Is this a know bug?

I am no tech person and this is my first post, but i did the following and it worked immediately.
In the folder i was not able to change, the status indicated a small man icon next to the sync icon.
This man icon indicates that a folder is being shared with another person.
If the folder you are trying to change has this man icon
1. Right click on the folder and click share under the one drive section
2. click the three horizontal dots on the top right corner
3. click manage access
4. without removing your access, remove access to everyone including the link.
5. exit that box and try renaming the folder.
This process, as mentioned immediately worked for me.
Let us know how you go.
