Read Only (Padlock Icon) files - OFDB 17.3.6743.1212
I am currently using the ODFB preview client 17.3.6743.1212 to sync a single group and a single SharePoint online document library. The Office 365 group library is working as expected but all the do...
The reason could be the following:
"When syncing libraries that require check out, or libraries with required columns or metadata, the files are synced as read-only. If you do make changes to these files, the changes will not be synced back to Office 365." from https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Get-started-syncing-SharePoint-sites-with-the-new-OneDrive-sync-client-Preview-6de9ede8-5b6e-4503-80b2-6190f3354a88
That was the problem, thank you!
This is the same problem we have. What is the solution? How can we set it not to get the padlock?
The only way is to disable versioning, as far as I know.
