Hi, I finally found the solution to my nasty green padlocked files and folders. Looks as though this is is a "feature" rather than a bug:
In Sharepoint (365) went to Library Settings for the Library,
Versioning Settings,
under "Who should see draft items in this document library?" chose "Any user who can read items" instead of the default (?) "Only users who can edit items"
The padlocked icons disappearered after exiting the sync client and logging back in to ODFB

Hi,
I also found one check, what can be only this setting :
"Do you want to approve content for submitted items?" - No
If is Yes - also I have Pdalock Icon
