I have recently purchased 365 Office Business subscription. Not sure what I have done during my account set-up, but when I copy a file from some other cloud storage location (e.g. ADOBE Cloud) to my new OneDrive, the current date and time gets added automatically to the end of the file name I am copying to OneDrive. I must have set up something in my new 365 account setting, but I cannot find where that setting is located. I'd like to stop the system adding the date stamp automatically to the files' names that I am moving to OneDrive. Requesting help please. Thank you.

@mxzaidi There are many ways to save to OneDrive. How are you doing it? The only reference I can see to it has the source app making the filename change e.g. https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/105551-date-and-time-added-to-file-names-when-savi...

@Mike Williams Thank you, Mike -- good thinking there. This happens only when using iPhone. I tested copying from my Windows laptop to OneDrive -- no file name added. Then from the laptop, I tested copying directly from Adobe cloud to OneDrive -- no file name added. So this is happening only when copying from my iPhone (iPhone Files app) to OneDrive. But it does not happen when I copy files from Adobe Cloud to iCloud using that same iPhone Files app. I cannot see any setting in iPhone, nor in Adobe or iCloud settings, that will add a date stamp to a file name only when copying from Adobe to OneDrive, but will not add the date stamp when copying a file from any other source drive to any other destination drive. Thanks again for helping. Max

This issue persists on iOS 17.1
OneDrive appends a timestamp to uploaded files also when using Microsoft's OneDrive.app on iOS (both iPhone and iPad in my case).

still happens in 2024 - this is ridiculous @Microsoft !!!!
Please add at least a way to change this as a user, it‘s such a no go to automatically change filenames!
