Synchronization issue with unknown files
Hello. I have synchronization issue with 2 uknown files since 2 years or so. During that period I've restarted synchronization once. It didn't help. The weight of files sometimes changes what suggests that those files are in constant use. I would have excluded them from synchronization, but I can't identify them. There is no place where I could have found the name and location of those files. Does anyone know, by any chance, where are any logs or how to enable them, if they are not enabled by default, to troubleshoot that? Thanks in advance for any help in that matter... and Happy New Year!!s_krawczakJan 06, 2026Copper Contributor14Views0likes1CommentOneDrive asks to "Delete these 13888 items?"
We have MS 365 Family with six users. The last few days, in updating one of the PCs with MS 365 Family, maybe two minutes after each restart, I get this message: Microsoft OneDrive Delete these items? Review the 13888 items before they are deleted. You are going to delete [filename], [filename] and 13886 more items (Checkbox) Don't ask again for large number of deletes {Button) Keep 13888 items (Button) Delete all items FYI – I opened this OneDrive and looked in its Recycle Bin, and none of these 13888 items is there. That Recycle Bin is currently empty. I am not at all sure what happens where if (a) I do “Keep 13888 items”, (b) I do “Delete all items” or (c) I check “Don’t ask again for large numbers of deletes”. Does anyone have personal experience with this and knows what happens (and where) for each of these choices? Thanks.glnzJan 05, 2026Copper Contributor33Views0likes1CommentBuilt an Android app for OneDrive duplicate detection (something I wish Microsoft offered natively)
After years of dealing with duplicate photos and videos in OneDrive, I built a solution and wanted to share it with the community. **The problem:** - Samsung Gallery sync creates duplicates in both "Camera Roll" and "Samsung Gallery" folders - WhatsApp media gets backed up twice (original + shared copy) - App resets/reinstalls trigger re-uploads with "(1)" suffixes - No native duplicate detection in OneDrive **What I built:** OneDrive MediaOps - an Android app that scans for duplicates directly in the cloud using perceptual image hashing. No need to download files to a desktop first. Key features: - Cloud-based scanning (no downloads required) - Perceptual hashing catches visually identical photos even with different filenames - Preview before deleting - Batch deletion **Why cloud-based matters:** With 50GB+ of photos, downloading everything to run a desktop duplicate finder wasn't practical. This scans thumbnails directly via the Graph API. Available on Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.onedrive.mediaops&pcampaignid=web_share Would love feedback from the community - especially if you've been dealing with the Samsung/OneDrive sync duplicate issue.Dossiers Document / les sous dossiers et les fichiers sont invisibles sur OneDrive
Bonjour à tous, Sur mon espace OneDrive en ligne le dossier Documents semble vide et pourtant il y 250Go de sauvegardé. Sur mon PC, le dossier Documents est bien complet. Jai tenté quelques manips notamment stopper la synchronisation puis la redémarrer. Rien n’y fait. Merci d’avance pour vos bons conseils et bonne fêtes à tous.

Hello, I have Family 365 Office version. I have recently run out of subscription and updated it again with a few weeks delay. The onedrive on my main account is working fine, but one of my family member's account is not updating properly. It still shows that I am over the storage with about 0.2TB files stored whereas the subscription plan allows for 1 TB - see photographs below. Could you please advise what can be done? Many thanks, SuzySuzy92Jan 04, 2026Copper Contributor18Views0likes1CommentFace scan recognition limits?
I was a big fan of adding name tags in photos before, and was eager to have it back. Problem is, I have quite a large number of photos, and onedrive just stopped scanning, being very far from finishing the job. I mean, considering for example the pictures my spouse appears in, one drive started recognizing her in the most ancient photos quite nicely, but stopped somewhere in 2006, and than added just a dozen from the most recent pictures. Yes, I keep taking photos of her meanwhile. Unfortunately it didn't accept help from me, like hey look here, this is a face, and is the face of this person. Any idea if this is just temporary?ISSJan 03, 2026Copper Contributor21Views0likes1CommentDuplicates In My Photo Gallery (OH MY!)
I'm new to this and somehow uploaded hundreds of duplicate photos that I'm seeing in the Gallery. I'd just as soon delete everything and start over, but don't see a mass deletion option. I have almost 3,000 photos in the Gallery and want to just start over.aaronjmattesonJan 03, 2026Copper Contributor22Views0likes1CommentOneDrive Newbie
I have uploaded large photo files into OneDrive and they exist as zip files in my OneDrive folders. How do I get these to show up in the Photo Gallery? I can drill down in the files and see the pics, but not at all sure how to get them to show up in the Gallery.aaronjmattesonJan 03, 2026Copper Contributor22Views0likes1CommentCan OneDrive mobile sync a specific local folder on Android or iOS?
Hi, I would like to understand what is officially supported regarding folder synchronization in the OneDrive mobile app on Android and iOS. Specifically: - Is it possible to select a specific local folder on a mobile device and configure OneDrive mobile to automatically sync that folder? - Or does the OneDrive mobile app only support manual uploads and limited automatic features such as camera roll backup? I am looking for an official clarification on the supported behavior of OneDrive on mobile devices. Thank you.62Views0likes1Comment
