Deleted files/folders reappear as they are synced back online from client OneDrive
I had the same problem. What did the trick for me, was through OneDrive(Desktop) creating a new folder and moving the file to that folder, then deleting it. I am not sure why it worked. But it was a quick solution for me, albeit a workaround.
J_Rouse we've had our users also do this trick of creating a folder for those OLD (deleted) folders which seem to reappear everytime someone syncs them back online.
any word from Microsoft as to when this issue will be permanently fixed?
Does anyone have a concrete solution to this problem?
Microsoft has been no help and the problem is intermitted.
Recently, in our case users that work on multiple files/folder within a document library, delete files and they re-appear months later. Any help would be appreaciated.
- setup a nextcloud server? I am really happy with mine.
