One Drive Context Menu Share Button Missing!

I have the same problem in Windows 11. I tried every single solution I found in internet (except to delete the user and recreate it again) and nothing helped. It's just the buggy Microsoft software... At least I came to a workaround - I noticed that if I open the location of the OneDrive.lnk file and right-click on it some magic happens and the OneDrive context menu starts working. So I copied OneDrive.lnk to the root of my OneDrive folder, now when I right click it the functionality comes back.
Microsoft, it's a shame - your own cloud service doesn't work correctly on your own OS!- MAS-PLKFeb 16, 2022Copper Contributor
nassoo I'll likely get this escalated with Microsoft directly since we haven't heard anything back from the community forum with any of the official Microsoft personnel. Unfortunately, I have to speak with our managed service provider to do the escalation since I am not a global admin in our Microsoft Admin Center. I have a meeting with them today so I will raise the question. They have multiple clients... somebody must have reported the same symptoms. I'll keep you posted with what I learn later on today.
- nassooFeb 16, 2022Copper ContributorThanks a lot! I'll be very grateful if you share the news 🙂

- adenmanMay 04, 2022Copper Contributornassoo's workaround is working for us! Like he said, no other options (UAC or installing for /allusers) worked, but this does.
The one issue is it doesn't seem to last for very long, so make sure to put it somewhere easy for the user to get to.
