Allowing External Access
Hi guys, I want to allow guest external access for the folder. I followed the guide and video posted by Microsoft: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/solutions/collaborate-on-documents?view=o365-worldwide I changed the setting in the SharePoint settings, in the identity settings, and I even changed the default permission from edit to view. The only change that went through is the default permission. When I go to my OneDrive and share something, the default is now view; however, I still can't share anything outside my organisation. Can anyone help me find out why? Does it take time for the settings to be pushed? Hope someone can help me.fareselkordyNov 19, 2025Occasional Reader22Views0likes1CommentOneDrive says tnot enough cloud space and asks me to free up space, but there are enough space.
Once I click on the "Free up Space" option, it just shows that I have enough space. I opened a ticket since 11/6 and heard nothing since.Same thing from my phone. The ticket was assigned to an agent on 11/7. No one responded. It has been 11 days since I asked for tech support. The problem persisted more than two weeks. Not even sure how I could get ahold of a human. Is my only option to cancel OneDrive and switch to NAS?PssedoffcustomerNov 19, 2025Occasional Reader18Views0likes1CommentOneDrive Context Menu Missing on Windows 11
OneDrive Context menu missing Hi guys, I’m having some issues regarding OneDrive and it’s Context Menu not being present on files. Environment: Windows 11 23H2, Intune managed OneDrive Build: 25.005.0112.30003 (64-bit) Affected users: all I tried all the fixes I could find on the Internet, but none have helped. Devices don’t have issues with synchronization, they only have an issue with the Context Menu missing. I can only see Always Keep on this Device and Free Up Space. Even if I press Show More Options, only the same only two previously mentioned appear. Is there anything else which I could have missed? Intune policies – no one seems to control such a thing, the context menu. Is there really not a known fix for this issue? 1.

I bought a new laptop recently and have been working to set it up with everything my old computer has. I love my old laptop, but it is five years old and I worry about failure and losing everything. Because of that fear, I have used OneDrive heavily. Anyway, when there was a pre-BlackFriday sale, I purchased a new laptop. I got OneNote to come over with my folders, but I can't get the OneDrive synced. I have researched online and have tried sharing and other suggestions, and nothing works. How can I get my new computer to use the same OneDrive?holisandraNov 13, 2025Copper Contributor21Views0likes0CommentsAfter reinstallation OneDrive, the backup cannot be made due to another cloud service in Windows 11?
Hello everyone, I'm a Dutch Windows 11 user with the following problem: Since one of my Microsoft accounts has been disabled for private usage on my home pc I removed that account and it's folder from my local userprofile in Windows. Note: There was no other way removing it since I could not logon anymore. Even before that account was disabled the Explorer in Windows 11 is extremely slow. Taking about 30 seconds to open or browse files and folders. I found multiple people describing this issue on the internet. I tried running: "OneDrive.exe /reset" (as mentioned in the https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/reset-onedrive-34701e00-bf7b-42db-b960-84905399050c) to fix this problem with no result. I also tried running "wsreset.exe" (https://support.microsoft.com/nl-nl/office/onedrive-opnieuw-instellen-34701e00-bf7b-42db-b960-84905399050c?WT.mc_id=365AdminCSH_Smc) also with no result. At last I removed OneDrive from my pc. Deinstalling it, then rebooted my pc and reinstalled it. That resulted in the following (from Dutch translated) error: "Your Pictures folder in OneDrive can't be backed up because it contains other cloud storage. Disable cloud service syncing in this folder and try again." aakt van uw afbeeldingen-map in OneDrive omdat deze een andere cloudopslag bevat. Schakel de cloudservice synchronisatie in deze map uit en probeer het opnieuw". Since there seemed no way to remove the 'other' cloudservice. Hey I removed OneDrive to install it again. I decided to remove OneDrive agian from my pc by deinstalling it. After rebooting my pc I also removed all OneDrive foders from my %UserProfile% (I have a back-up on USB), then reinstalling OneDrive. You might guessed it, and yes your right I got the same error again! Apparently there is no supportpage on this error so I post it here. Maybe someone here knows it and can provide me with a solution? Thanks in advance! PS. I also have Apple's iCloud running on my pc, I also removed and reinstalled that program without problem thinking it might be the "other cloudservice" mentioned in the error. I use OneDrive for bussiness (School-Microsoft-account) this error I get is on my personal (non-bussiness) MS-account.C_DenningerNov 13, 2025Copper Contributor192Views0likes3CommentsMove files from Account A to Account B 165 GB data
I’ve been using Microsoft Office 365 Family for several years, sharing it with my family members. We have 6 accounts, each with 1 TB of storage. One of my accounts has now reached 985 GB, so I need to transfer files from Account A (my account) to Account B (my wife’s account). These files mainly consist of photos and videos — over 200,000 files in total. I tried transferring a 6 GB wedding shoot (.ISO format), but it took more than an hour. Re-downloading and uploading all the data isn’t feasible as my internet connectivity is limited to 100 mbps only. I’m looking for the best and most efficient way to move these files directly between OneDrive accounts.OpXo8dos750Nov 11, 2025Copper Contributor57Views0likes1CommentOneDrive stops syncing folders at random
Hi team I've got a couple of devices that are syncing less then 300,000 items. A couple of times a month OneDrive just stops syncing and won't start until its reset. Just to clarify OneDrive is still running, it just doesn't sync anything and the OneDrive status icons in File Explorer disappear Reset OneDrive resolves the issue but its frustrating as some of the files are shared with other people and I don't see their updates. Pause OneDrive and restart it doesn't do anything I have 100gb free on one device, 66gb on another and 50gb on the third No shortcuts are syncing Onedrive metered network option is turned off Updated to 25.184.0921.0004 No bandwidth limits applied Has anyone else had this experience? If so what did you do for a solution? Any assistance is appreciatedbaldingrooNov 06, 2025Copper Contributor68Views1like1CommentSocial media links on these community pages
II don't know if this is due to my use of Firefox on my PC, but when I came here, I had to reduce the page size to 80% so those multiple social media links would not interfere with the display. Among other things, it make the past difficult for me to read. Can I eliminate those links?MR2Nov 06, 2025Copper Contributor32Views0likes1Comment
