Hi, I'm missing the context menu on synced OneDrive for Business files. The icons on the cloud status are visible, but in the right-click menu I have no section on OneDrive.
So no chance of changing the status to "Always Keep on device".
Is there a registry key missing or what can I do to get it back?
Ondrive client works otherwise without any problems!
Regards,
Oliver

@BallsOfSteel420 This simple solution worked for me; thank you. If I may, it is even simpler; you don't have to uninstall OneDrive at all. Just quit the running instance, then run the command
# I'm using PowerShell Core
.\OneDriveSetup.exe /AllUsers

I solved this by finding "Edit group policy" from my start menu.
Then I clicked through Computer Configuration -> Windows Settings -> Security Options -> Local Policy -> Security Options.
Next, I enabled a few of the 'User Account controls' which were disabled and then restarted my PC. Can't say for sure which setting did the trick but it now seems to work.
I have all on the following enabled:
Admin Approval Mode for the Built-in Administrator account
Detect application installations and prompt for elevation
Only elevate UIAccess applications in Admin Approval Mode
Switch to the secure desktop when prompting for elevation
Virtualize file and registry write failures to per-user locations
Don't forget to restart the computer after that and then check OneDrive to see if it has worked.

Brilliant! I was tearing my hair out by the roots but this worked 100%. Finally. Thank you so much. I never would have thought of adjusting my UAC up and back. Holy cow. It's a miracle!

Changing UAC settings worked for me - thanks @Jabiru
Both One Drives were working and syncing (personal and business), but the context menus to choose online/offline etc were missing.
Ran User Account Settings, and changed from Never Notify (must have had it on for some development work) to a higher setting and context menu is back.

I believe the issue that you are facing is that, you are suddenly missing "Share" OneDrive from your context menu, then follow these steps:
1. Go to C:\Program Files\Microsoft OneDrive
2. Look for latest installation folder, eg. I had it in "22.002.0103.0004_1"
3. Inside the folder look for "OneDriveSetup.exe"
4. If you find the file, then right click inside the folder and click "Open in Windows Terminal" or "Open Command Prompt"
5. Type command "OneDriveSetup.exe /allusers" and press enter.
This is how the installer will open and then will finish the activity.

6. Now go back to your folder in Explorer, and do right-click to see the OneDrive share context menu.
Hope this helps others? Please leave comments.
