    Hi, please check \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\CldFlt\Instances

     

    After upgrade to build 2004, the DefaultInstance was set to CldFltUpper. 

     

    I changed the value as CldFlt, rebooted... And now the FOD function is back and fully functionnal.

     

    Hope this will work for you too. 

     

    I had the idea to change this value as on my professional computer, I only have one instance named CldFlt and not the CldFltUpper.

Windows 10 gave me a notification saying that a troubleshooter for OneDrive needed to run. After running the troubleshooter and rebooting, I could turn on Files on Demand without the error occurring.

 

However…

 

I'm now finding that most of the time (although not always), when I right click on a file in OneDrive to change its sync mode, the context menu disappears within less than a second. This isn't happening with files outside of OneDrive.

 

Second, I'm finding that it now appears to be impossible to turn off Files on Demand. When I uncheck the box, a message pops up reading "Disable Files on Demand. All OneDrive files and folders will download to this PC". There are OK and cancel buttons. Regardless of which one I click on, the Files on Demand checkbox gets re-checked.
