OneDrive file blue in progress icon meaning?
I uploaded some videos to my OneDrive Photos section, but they don't show up under Photos. It shows up under Files -> Photos with a blue in progress icon next to it. This didn't happen a month ago, and I couldn't figure out what the icon meant. At first, I thought it was syncing, but it's been 11 hours, and it's still there. Any ideas? thanks
OneDrive “Share” window stuck loading from File Explorer (works on web)
Description: Hi all, I'm experiencing an issue with OneDrive where the "Share" option from Windows File Explorer gets stuck indefinitely loading (blank window with spinner). Details: The issue occurs only when using right-click → Share from File Explorer Sharing works correctly from OneDrive web interface Issue is affecting multiple users in the same environment OneDrive sync itself is working normally Troubleshooting already performed: Reinstalled OneDrive completely (clean install) Cleared local cache and removed residual folders Reinstalled Microsoft Edge WebView2 Runtime (Evergreen x64) Cleared Windows Credential Manager entries Reconnected Work/School account (WAM reset) Tested on different networks (including mobile hotspot) Windows fully updated Environment: Windows 11 (corporate environment) Microsoft 365 / OneDrive for Business Observation: The issue seems isolated to the File Explorer integration (possibly WebView2 or WAM-related), since web sharing works fine. Has anyone experienced this behavior recently or is there any known issue with the OneDrive Explorer integration? Thanks in advance.
Lost all Onedrive files
I manage my Onedrive files primarily on my desktop and when I went into my computer today I couldn’t access any file because they all had the red X sync error. Then I went into the web to access them and they were all gone. I checked the recycle bin and restore and nothing was there. Any idea what happened and how I can get my files back? I have multiple accounts (two for work and one personal) and this was my personal account. My work is doing updates on my work laptop this week and my concern is somehow they deleted all my personal files.Onedrive Web search : "Location" column always shows "My Files" for folders path
reproducible bug in the OneDrive web search results Summary: the "Location" column systematically displays "My Files" for folders, regardless of their actual location in the directory tree. This does not affect files — files correctly display their real path in the same column. Expected behavior: The "Location" column should display the actual parent path of the folder (e.g. My Files > Subfolder A > Subfolder B ...). Actual behavior: The "Location" column displays "My Files" for every folder result, regardless of where the folder actually sits in the hierarchy. Note: The same search correctly shows the real path for files inside those same folders. The issue is exclusive to folder-type results. Environment: Account type: Personal Reproducible: Yes, 100% consistently Impact: This makes it impossible to disambiguate between folders with the same name located in different parts of the tree when using search. Please let me know if additional information or screenshots would help. Thank you.
OneDrive changing dates
I have an S24 ultra with pictures dating back to 2001 till the current day. I have thousands of family photos that I was able to gather and organize, and wanted them to be synced with OneDrive so I can access them on my PC and my phone. I decided to get OneDrive to be able to upload ALL of my gallery to OneDrive however, I noticed that around 80% of everything getting uploaded has its dates changed to the time it was uploaded, while a handful remains accurate. I made sure it wasn't the way I was viewing the folder and files, and checked the properties/info of the files and saw that all the dates and data were changed. Is there any way to fix this or prevent this from happening?Files are gone, folderstructure is there
Dear community, I have a one drive account with a extensive folder structure. Today I noticed that the folderstructure is intact (on my laptop and online) but the files are mostly gone for 90%, here and there a folder with some files. My account is a personal 356, have 1 terrabyte. I tried to restore the drive through the instructions I found online by Microsoft, go to settings, one drive restore, check recycle bin, etcetera. Nothing helped. I did not deleted the files manually. I honestly do not know what to do? Tried to get in contact with Microsoft but that is totally impossible. Is there anyone that has expirienced this also? I use onedrive now for many years and never had this. Please helpPNG with Transparent Background display black
I have read some old posts about this but can't find the solution or workaround. I use a windows laptop with windows 11 - up to date firmware and drivers. I am a crafter and save all the designs on onedrive, the majority come with a transparent background for building up designs. when i'm looking at the images in the software packages I use eg. affinity designer, design space, gimp, inkscape, infanview, they have black backgrounds but when opened they have a transparent background. I also have the same when viewing files using windows explorer. I've tried all the "fixes" that I've seen online but nothing has worked. Please can someone save my sanity and point me in the right direction.
