please add more details to it. thank you

 

 

 

Tried restarting my computer 2 times already with 5/6 hours intervals. I let it run like that for hours, hoping it will finish whatever it is doing but nope, it always stays like that.

 

anyone else having this issue on the same exact build?

      Windows 10 Build 22621 the problem still exists. I have to kill the application everytime. I think it started to appear when my disk is full and also I can't modify anything beacause of this high CPU.

    HotCakeX hello, you can delete all the folders inside log.

    C:\Users\nomeUtente\AppData\Local\Microsoft\OneDrive\logs\

     

    it's possible that you must do this everytime you start Windows.

     

    I tried this solution and it works.

      I'm not using Fast ring anymore, using slow ring now. but that doesn't look like a solution but just a temporary workaround.

      it's been 8 days since last fast ring build, it's time for Microsoft to release the next build.
      then i will switch back and try it.

        HotCakeX Are you not able to use OneDrive on the web to access files?  You can kill the process via Task Manager to stop the CPU usage.  Worse case scenario, you could roll back to the previous build and pause updates.

    I have the same problem with OneDrive pulling a lot of CPU and not working, getting up the following error message cloud provider is not running. I've done reset by OneDrive, it didn't help. Have also tried reinstalling and installing an older version but it unfortunately does not help.

    Well, not only that. OneDrive started multiple copies, uses nearly all of the CPU, but also, it doesn't work.

    I've no access to cloud files, It can't be uninstalled, or older version installed.

    I've got to roll-back this build, I suppose.

        Yes, a few times, but it is not possible to make it work here.

        If I try to load a common downloaded version, it states, that I have newer already and I have to uninstall it before.

        But uninstall just doesn't work. There are two scenarios:

        1. Nothing happens - I just click at the Uninstall button and nothing happens. But after some restarts...

        2. I've got alert, that there is no onedrivesetup.exe in some locations. I copied the old onedrivesetup.exe there and it worked with uninstall.

        I changed nothing because downloaded setup installs onedrive, but it doesn't work again.

        Worse after restoration to the previous build, onedrive still doesn't work. Uff.

        Here at least the trick with providing onedrivesetup.exe to uninstall works and downloaded setup installs working onedrive.

        So, on the new build, one drive is dead - both versions new (from the new build) and old (from download).

         

        About this strange location, from which Uninstall tried to start onedrivesetup.exe.

        Once that was c:\Program Files (x86)\Miscrosoft OneDrive\19.232.1124.0005\

        But the second time I installed a new build, that was C:\Users\Me\AppData\Local\Microsoft\OneDrive\19.232.1124.0005_1

  • HotCakeX Yes, we have received some reports of this issue, and are looking into it.  If you could please file feedback in Feedback Hub and share the link with me, I will be sure it's added to the others.
