Hi there, Recently I am not able to stop sharing files for individuals.
This is the scenario:
Ik made a file on my OneDrive
Ik shared it with some colleagues
When I want to stop sharing it...

Probably you have shared the file with Anyone (i.e. anonymously).
In such scenario, if you stop sharing, the anonymous link stops working for everyone.
If you want to have the possibility to stop sharing individually, you have in first place to share it individually (i.e. with specific users).

I have a similar situation where I have granted file sharing to individuals (on an individual by individual basis) but have no means of revoking the file share for a individual. Advice states:
[under Manage Access] "to remove an individual: Click the drop-down next to their name and select Stop sharing or Remove direct access."
but there is no drop-down next to the name.
