Shredded Storage in SPO
Anyone knows if Shredded Storage is still used in SharePoint Online? Is there a way to see the actual storage consume by each file version? I would like to see the actual storage consume for a specific library. The SharePoint "Site Storage Metrics" site parameters does seems to calaculate the full size of the file for each version (not shredded info). Thanks.
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?
Handling duplicate files in a Sharpoint library
Hi, I need some help regarding an issue I have in Sharepoint library. We have several libraries containing files (Word, Excel, PDF, PPT). Once these are in Approved status they are moved to a library called "Published". The problem occurs when the file has the same name in 2 (or more) libraries and are copied to "Published" library. Right now it is renaming with a suffix number after the name, but this is not ideal. Is it possible to have the same name on both (or several) files if the metadata is different?
How can I force OneDrive to accept metadata for images and photos 1:1?
Is there any way to force OneDrive to save images as an exact copy of the original local files, including all changes to metadata? In detail: I have massive problems with using OneDrive as a data storage for photos, as OneDrive is often unwilling to accept changes to metadata (especially tags or geo-coordinates). The problem seems to have existed for years, as you can read in various places: https://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/4527626 - OneDrive reverts changes to IPTC (!) https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/onedrive-randomly-re-creates-pictures-some/7ca06735-eac2-470d-8c54-77adc7955d5c https://www.lightroomqueen.com/community/threads/lightroom-with-onedrive-keyword-metadata-conflicts.41753/ and other places. I also have the problem that I change the metadata of my images with digiKam, but that these changes are then often not accepted by OneDrive. There is then a file conflict, OneDrive renames my local files and I then have two variants. Or the changes simply do not arrive in OneDrive and are not even recognized as changes. In other words, it is not possible to reliably change image metadata when the folder is synchronized with OneDrive. So I tried the following workaround to at least have a secure and exact copy of my data somewhere: - I now use local folders for pictures and videos that are not synchronized with OneDrive - I synchronize these local folders via "Synology Drive" one-way (from the PC to the Synology) with a Synology Diskstation - "Chloud Sync" runs on the Synology to synchronize the changes from the Synology to OneDrive one-way. - The aim is for the data in OneDrive to also correspond to the local data on my PC The synchronization from the PC to the Synology works. I can compare data with WinMerge and the data on the Synology corresponds to the local data. The synchronization from the Synology to OneDrive does not work properly: I can synchronize the data from OneDrive to my PC for testing and comparison. If I now compare my original local images with those that come back to my PC via the detour "local -> Synology -> OneDrive -> local 2", many changes in the metadata of the images are not adopted.SharePoint List Export to Excel Not Updating After Refresh
Hello, My SharePoint list had 3.5k rows and recently did a huge cleanup and deleted almost half of it. It now currently has 1.6k items. I have exported that SharePoint list to an excel file but when I hit Refresh All in the file, it still has 3.5k line items and still hasn't updated. I did the update around 2pm CST yesterday, and as of writing this it is currently 8:30am CST the next day. I don't understand how when I export to CSV, everything is updated but when I export a new file to Excel or when I refresh my old export that is still linked to my SharePoint list, it isn't updating. Please help. Thank you!

PDF as document content type in document set - no metadata
Hello I have a templates library, each template has DocumentType metadata. I have a document content type called 'Speaker Author Agreement Recording'. It is a PDF. In its advanced settings, it links to the Speaker Author Agreement Recording template in the template library and its metadata. I have a document set called 'Webinar' that includes the Speaker Author Agreement Recording document content type. I include it as Default content and the name of the doc set is added to each file name. When I create a document set in a library, it imports the Speaker Author Agreement Recording template but does not assign its DocumentType. It works for the excel and MS Word documents. It does not work for the PDF document. Can you please tell me how to fix this. Thank you :)OneDrive personal logs filling up hard drive
I received a low disc space alert on my pc, and to my surprise, had 0% remaining. After some exploring, I found a folder: Users/UserName/AppData/Local/Microsoft/OneDrive/Logs/Personal Which was about 30GB and contained a few hundred thousand files called SyncEngine followed by dates and numeric codes. I deleted the folder contents. After about a day its back up to 8GB and climbing. I deselected any folders for OneDrive backup. I'm assuming there's something wrong and this folder isn't supposed to be outrageously large, but I can't get it to stop filling up my hard drive. Any insights would be greatly welcomed!
