Hide spesific folder from OneDrive synk all users
We have a cloud application that uses the user's OneDrive while they are working with documents. These files are stored in a specific folder and are removed when the user checks in the files through the application. However, it seems the application does not handle users checking in files while they are syncing. I’ve looked into policies and settings in SharePoint Online and Intune, but I haven’t found a way to exclude the folder for all users. The only solution so far seems to be guiding users to do this manually. Is there really no other way to achieve this?
Onedrive file sync issue
I just recently had an issue where my files were not synced because i had run out of onedrive storage space so i just got rid of a bunch of unnecessary files sitting around which freed up a ton of space. The files still werent synced so i resett one drive to sync them back up but when i did that it just restored the files i had just deleted. I kept trying over and over again but the same kept happening and now i cant sycn my files. Ive tried everything, restarted my computer. Reinstalled onedrive but its all not working and my files and folders wonf sync. What do i do to fix this?
OneDrive Stops Running
I have a Windows 11 on a laptop and have been using Onedrive for a long time. This problem happens when the PC is started. Suddenly the program stops after showing up in the taskbar. It goes through signing in and then quits running. For a while a window kept popping up suggesting an update to PowerDrive. That's when Onedrive stops. I uninstalled the PowerDrive program, but Onedrive stills stops. When following the suggestions on the Microsoft page for resetting Onedrive the message that it cannot find Onedrive shows up. Yet Onedrive presumably has been installed in the correct location. I have uninstalled and re-installed Onedrive. Also, re-installed Windows, and the Microsoft 365 family. Each time Onedrive shows up and then stops running. I can start Onedrive, the folder opens, the icons shows up. But a few seconds later the icon is gone. Ideas?
OneDrive deleted thousands of my files?
I'm hoping somebody here can help me, because I can't find any kind of "Support" link just for OneDrive. Yesterday, for no reason I can determine, OneDrive (personal) deleted a couple thousand old files of mine and put them in the Recycle Bin. I was not using even half of my 1 TB storage, and I did not delete these files myself. They were in various folders. Some had been accessed very recently, some had not been accessed in years. I looked for the files on the app on my phone, on the website, and by trying to find deleted files through apps on my phone (i.e. I looked for a deleted Excel file and it was not found). They were all different file types - Excel, Word, PDF, pictures. I cannot figure out why it did this, and I haven't been able to find any documentation of a known glitch. Has anyone else had this happen?
How to resolve "Fix folder issues to sync x items"?
OneDrive for Business 25.170 (September 2025) for macOS Sequoia. When I click the OneDrive icon in the menu bar, the popup shows "Fix folder issues to sync 108 items.". Clicking not he message does take me to the root OneDrive for Business folder on macOS - not to the individual items. Also, due to the limited size of the UI - which cannot be expanded - the full path names appear shortened, making it difficult to identify the one which are causing problems. (It is somewhat difficult to understand, who comes up with such an unusable user interface design decision for something as important as potential sync issues, but that is a completely different topic.) Any help how to resolve these issues would be greatly appreciated.
Date taken option removed!
I’m finding One Drive increasingly frustrating as a photographer as the date taken option has been removed and my files are badly muddled, this option was part of the app for years so why did the developer remove it. Very annoying for professional photo work so bring it back.Syncing Minecraft Worlds to Onedrive
Hello I am trying to sync my Minecraft "saves" folder to Onedrive. It has all of my Minecraft worlds folders on it. I can upload a copy of it to Onedrive, but I am unsure if the data in the world folders updates automatically as I play in my worlds. Does the data in the world folders update as I play them? How to I sync the "saves" folder to Onedrive (it does not give me the option when I right click. For reference, the saves folder is located at: C:\Users\mixma\AppData\Roaming\.minecraft\savesSave and close large files
I have a decent internet connection from my Windows 11 laptop - around 20 mbps upload, 70 mbps download and a ping time around 10 to 15 ms. Most of the files I work with in the OneDrive area of my laptop are under 10 MB and their mirroring to the cloud is fine. I also use files (mostly Excel or Word) bigger than that and they regularly do not mirror properly. If I save one of these larger files then close it a little while later, the file is synched properly and all is well. However if I just close one of these larger files (and am prompted to save it, to which I agree) I get one of a variety of error messages, ranging from saying that the server version has been edited to a message that I have to open the file and save it (or save-as) to synchronise things. The same happens if I use a save-and-close routine in VBA (Excel or Word). This is reproducible - it seems clear that if the "close" instruction follows too soon behind the "save" instruction, OneDrive can't and doesn't cope. This is annoying when I'm saving/closing the file "manually" then have to clean-up afterwards but I can do the "save, wait, close thing, and a real pain when I want to save and close from VBA when I don't have the option to wait between the save and the close instructions. Surely this isn't how OneDrive is supposed to function, or is there a workaround or something else that I am missing ?
