Issue with accessing personal vault on OneDrive app post restart
When I opened my onedrive mobile app today the app pushed a message saying that a restart was required. I restarted the app and it told me to set up my personal vault. I've been using my personal vault for several years now so no set up was required. When I logged into my personal vault, all of the files within it were missing. They're available on the online version of onedrive but not in the app version. There's nothing in the recycling bin and there's no recent activity to suggest mass movement/deletion of files. I've restarted the app multiple times, tried with and without wifi, and have tried on different devices - all are showing an empty vault. Has anyone had this problem? Is this a syncing issue or a bug with the new app?
Stop "Backup this document" prompt in Office
Every so often when I open a file in Excel or Word (perhaps about one in five), I get a prompt that says "Backup this document to OneDrive". I use Windows11 and Office365. I have every option for OneDrive backup turned off. I have it set for all files stored locally, all folders are off for backup in OneDrive settings. Anytime OneDrive asks me to back something up I dismiss it. How can I turn this nagging prompt off permanently?
Lost Recent Version of File From OneDrive
I made steady progress on my maths investigation and at one point I spent 3 hours working on it. I've revisited the file a few days later to find ALL the changes made in the second 2 hours completely gone. There aren't any recovered documents and upon revisiting I noticed Autosave turned OFF despite having the file saved to OneDrive and not manually turning it off. Version history tells me that the last saved change was after the first hour, completely missing out on the subsequent 2 hours of important progress. Is there ANY way to retrieve this (somehow unsaved) work? And if not what caused this?
How do users default onedrive files to open in microsoft desktop applications.
Nowhere to action this in your browser interface. Selecting files by clicking on them simply opens the files in new browser windows. Setting 'open in app' as default in desktop applications has no effect. We do not want to have to select 'open > in app' on every single microsoft format file in a browser. Tested in latest version of modern browsers Firefox / Chrome / microsoft edge. See attached for visual if unclearIs MS-ONEDRIVE shared links not working correctly ?
To all, I use MS-ONEDRIVE quite a lot by sending links to my clients to access the architectural plans etc I create for their projects. A few days ago a client e-mailed me noting he couldn't see all the folders in the link I issued to him. I then issued a new shared link to just one folder, which is open showing the content. However, the most odd behaviour, is that the menu at the top with:- Share, Delete, Move to, Copy to, Download, Rename & Embed Version history etc Changes when you click on more than one file to download, i.e. the menu changes to:- Delete, Move to & Copy to So one can't download the complete files at one time & these may be many ! This didn't happen before with MS-ONEDRIVE, so does anyone know whats going on with MS-HQ, is it another glitch that needs correcting ?
OneDrive on Mac: OneDrive folder always opens at startup - How can I stop this?
Hello, I run the latest version of OneDrive (Version 24.132.0701.0001) on a Mac running macOS 14.5. When I start a session, the OneDrive folder always opens. How can I stop this? I want a "silent" run of OneDrive... I couldn't find any option in the preferences for this... By the way, I have the same " issue " with Windows10 and Windows11. (I consider it an issue, but maybe it's not considered an issue by Microsoft...) Many thanks in advance for any help.
