OneDrive error code 0x8004de26
We are a school system and are having an issue with our OneDrive app not allowing us to sign in. Things had been working until about 2 weeks ago and things stopped. We are having the issue across multiple users. We are on Windows 11 laptops and desktops and are trying to sign into the app to get items saved in on the desktop to syn with OneDrive accounts in the cloud. The sign-in process either simply spins or we get error code0x8004de26. I am wondering if anyone has resolved the same issue or has ideas? Thank you.
Force OneDrive/Excel to return the local file path instead of a cloud URL
Hello, I have all my 3D models stored in a OneDrive-synced folder, including the Excel file that controls many of the model parameters. I work on three different PCs, so using OneDrive for synchronization would be ideal. However, my modeling software Solid Edge runs into a specific issue: it does find the linked Excel file in the OneDrive-synced folder and attempts to open it, but as soon as it tries to read the parameters, it gets stuck in an endless loop. The reason is that Excel no longer provides a normal local Windows file path for the workbook—even though the file is fully available offline. Instead, Excel exposes the OneDrive/SharePoint URL, and Solid Edge cannot process this URL, which causes the loop. What I have tried so far: Enabled “Keep files on this device” for the entire project folder Completely shut down OneDrive (disabled it and killed all OneDrive processes in Task Manager) Tried changing the stored Excel path inside Solid Edge from a local path to the OneDrive URL — Solid Edge does not accept URLs as valid paths None of these attempts solved the issue. If anyone has a reliable method to make Solid Edge read a OneDrive-synced Excel file as a local file path, I would really appreciate your help.".tmp.driveupload"
I am having an issue where my word doc (set to autosave to OneDrive business desktop app) on my PC is suddenly saved in a ".tmp.driveupload" folder online under a different file name (random numbers), with autosave switched off. If I do not notice this happening, the change to the document is not saved under the expected folder and file name, resulting in no change made to the file I opened. The only workaround I've found is to "save a copy" and overwrite the file I opened in the original folder. This only works if I notice the sudden name change and file save in the tmp folder. If I don't, the changes are lost because the tmp file is deleted (to recycle bin) on exit and the tmp folder is not synced to my PC. I have to go online to the OneDrive business website, guess which file it may be, restore that from the OneDrive recycle bin, and hope it is the file I was looking for. The frequency of this happening means that there are numerous tmp files under pseudo file names to scour through. One-hour plus on the phone with MS Office subscription support is of no help.
OneDrive speed problems. Symlinks?
I'm having problems with slow syncing my local OneDrive folder to my online OneDrive. I recently added about 40K symlinks to my folder and I'm suspecting that could be the cause. But NONE of my symlinks are pointing to network files. They all point to local files in my local OneDrive folder. I just want to sync the symlink files themselves, not the files the symlinks point to. Those files will be synced separately since they are in the same tree. I have about 85K files in my OneDrive and, as I said, about 40K of those are symlinks. OneDrive has been syncing for 2 days now and it still says there are 82K files remaining. It's only syncing about 100 files per hour. I'm pretty sure it's the symlinks that are making it go so slow. Before I created all the symlinks, syncing used to be pretty quick. Alternatively, is there a way to tell OneDrive to just ignore symlinks? I only need them in my local OneDrive folder tree and I don't need them online in OneDrive. I'm the only user of the files. If I don't get a good solution from someone here, I'm going to try writing a program that moves all my symlinks to a temp folder tree outside OneDrive, finish sync'ing the real files, and then move the symlinks back to their original location. But this is risky and I'm worried about corruption. Why didn't Microsoft give us an easy option to ignore symlinks? :-(
Onedrive continously signing out
Hi, I wondered if anyone can help.... Onedrive used to sync files from MS Teams Sharepoint like a dream until about 10 days ago. Now the desktop client seems to drop connection constantly as though the network is droppoing or firewall is blocking things.... Before I started there, I thought I would ask if anyone else has had this recently.... Nothing I do makes OneDrive stay signed in.... I have already ensured my Dell 7310 is fully up to date on Bios and software. Signed out of MS Teams, O365, Onedrive Cleared cache from C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\OneDrive Full shutdown, restart, login everywhere and OneDrive signs in sees 15 changes and signs out..... I have even unlinked the laptop, done the above again, relinked the laptop, it syncs and then signs out..... Has anyone got any ideas??
OneDrive Takes Excessively Long to Complete
I am experiencing a recurring issue with Microsoft OneDrive synchronization. When syncing files, the process often gets stuck on the last or second-to-last file. Specifically, it seems to hang indefinitely during the final bytes of the file. After a delay of approximately 4 to 5 minutes, the synchronization does eventually complete successfully. This prolonged delay impacts the efficiency of the syncing process, especially when working with time-sensitive files. I would appreciate it if this issue could be investigated and resolved.Have 1TB available but OneDrive wont upload and says "Not enough cloud storage"
I bought Office365 today and I have only 3gb on my account used out of over 1TB of space however when I try to sync it just says "Not enough cloud storage" "you don't have enough space for this file". This is very frustrating. I check my settings, I emptied my trash, I re-linked the account. None of it worked. I went through the Troubleshooting machine and did all the steps and nothing helped. I did get an error saying one drive could not be restarted. Anybody have any suggestions? Very frustrating to spend money and have this happen.Can't get OneDrive with all my data on new computer
I bought a new laptop recently and have been working to set it up with everything my old computer has. I love my old laptop, but it is five years old and I worry about failure and losing everything. Because of that fear, I have used OneDrive heavily. Anyway, when there was a pre-BlackFriday sale, I purchased a new laptop. I got OneNote to come over with my folders, but I can't get the OneDrive synced. I have researched online and have tried sharing and other suggestions, and nothing works. How can I get my new computer to use the same OneDrive?
Optimizing Azure DevOps Jira Integration: 5 Practical Use Cases for DevOps Teams
Many teams rely on Azure DevOps (ADO) for development and Jira for project or product management. While each tool is powerful on its own, things often get messy when work items, statuses, and updates live in separate systems. Integrating the two platforms can remove a lot of friction. Below are six common use cases I have seen from real teams, with concrete problems and solutions to make the connection between Jira and Azure DevOps work smoothly. 1. Keeping User Stories and Bugs in Sync Challenge: Teams use Jira for user requests and Azure DevOps for development tasks. Manually updating both systems is tedious and error-prone. Solution: Enable two-way synchronization so that changes in Jira automatically reflect in Azure DevOps and vice versa (including comments and status updates). This keeps bugs and stories aligned without duplicate work. “Before we integrated Jira with Aure DevOps, I spent too much time manually updating task statuses in both systems. Now, with the automatic sync, my team is focused on actual coding work instead of managing project statuses across platforms.” — DevOps Engineer 2. One-Way Sync for Project Management–First Teams Challenge: Some organizations plan and track everything in Jira but manage code exclusively in Azure DevOps. Developers only need the essentials pushed across. Solution: Use a one-way sync from Jira → Azure DevOps to bring over metadata like titles, statuses, sprints, and due dates. Developers see the context they need without cluttering both systems with manual updates. “We rely on Jira for all project planning and management, but the developers need a clean workspace in Azure DevOps. A one-way sync from Jira to ADO helps us keep things efficient and ensures developers always have the latest information without double entry.” — Product Owner 3. Creating Jira Tickets from Azure DevOps Tasks or Bugs Challenge: External partners or stakeholders may only work in Jira Service Management to manage tickets. Developers in Azure DevOps often need their work mirrored for transparency. Solution: Configure automated ticket creation in Jira when certain ADO tasks are tagged. Both teams can track progress in their preferred tool without duplicating effort. “We use Azure DevOps internally, but our external stakeholders only work in Jira. Automating the creation of Jira tickets based on Azure DevOps tasks or bugs has made collaboration seamless and ensured no work is lost in translation.” — DevOps Lead 4. Syncing Epics, Features, and Work Items Challenge: High-level epics might live in Jira, while features and tasks are managed in Azure DevOps. Without integration, visibility across systems is fragmented. Solution: Sync epics and features so Jira provides portfolio-level visibility, while Azure DevOps remains the system of record for detailed development work. This keeps roadmaps and execution aligned. “Tracking epics in Jira while managing the technical work in Azure DevOps used to cause us to lose visibility. Now, everything from high-level epics to individual tasks is in sync, so we always know where we stand.” — Azure DevOps Product Manager 5. Managing Multiple Jira Projects with One Azure DevOps Project Challenge: Large organizations often run multiple Jira projects (by teams or business units) but only one Azure DevOPs project for development. Syncing everything consistently is tough. Solution: Map multiple Jira projects to a single Azure DevOps project, syncing only the key data (titles, statuses, sprints, custom fields). This creates a unified development view without losing project-specific details. “We have multiple teams using different Jira projects, but we consolidate all development work into a single Azure DevOps project. Syncing across these platforms used to be a nightmare, but now everything stays aligned, and we’re able to track all initiatives in one place.” — Azure DevOps Engineer 💬 Have you integrated Jira with Azure DevOps in your team? What worked well, and what challenges did you run into?
