OneDrive issues after update to Windows 10 2004
I recently updated Windows 10 to version 2004, and after the last update-related reboot OneDrive would keep complaining about not being able to connect to Windows--required for the Files On-Demand feature (see snapshot below). I tried both workarounds related to cldflt.sys described in https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/-onedrive-cannot-connect-to-windows-error-when-accessing-files-in-onedrive-7c5b675f-555e-4aa1-b4d8-554698c2c2b9, but in my case both were checking out fine. I finally gave in & clicked Download Files, which was supposed to disable Files On-Demand and just pull down everything that wasn't there already. But the sync gets stuck immediately, claiming that it's downloading 1 out of 35 files (18MB total), except no matter how long I leave it, or how many times I restart OneDrive or logout & back in or restart the entire machine, it never moves forward... To make matters worse, none of the files synced to OneDrive now open; I am using OneDrive to backup Desktop, Documents, and Pictures, so none of those files can be opened... Here is an example of a message thrown when trying to open a PDF on my Desktop (which, by the way, is fully sync'ed, as indicated by the green check overlay on the file's icon): Any ideas how to get out of this pickle?
