Recent files show files have been accessed today within minutes of this message. I have not accessed these files in most cases in months and in some cases years. I have tried Microsoft support but they haven't been able to help. Example: I have a word document called AC placement. I have not opened that document in more than a month. In the Recent area it shows that I accessed that document at 3:20 PM today, minutes before this post. I have excel document callled Sprinklers which I have not opened in 6 months. It lists ti as opened on 10/19/2023 at 12:10 PM. I am trying to understand if there is a probelm with oneDrive or is someone else accessing my documents through oneDrive.40KViews0likes17CommentsTroubleshooting OneDrive Sync Issues: A Step-by-Step Guide

Hi all I'm using the latest version of Onedrive together with an updated Windows 11 and FSLogix (latest version) with Office profile disks. When using the file explorer to open folders from onedrive folders in the middle pane, it takes 10-20 seconds till the next window opens. When navigating in the same file explorer window but with the left treeview, everything is fast. When opening a file from within Word, Excel, ... with the popup file explorer, everything is fast. So the issue is only when clicking in the main window of a file explorer. I've done already all the updates, sfc, dism, reinstalled Onedrive, ... The issue is with all users.24KViews6likes24CommentsOneDrive Q regarding file access from 2 systems
Scenario: Within the root of one drive I have a directory named RESOURCE_FILES. Within that I have a txt file named MyFile.txt . SCENARIO1: I am at my laptop (named MyLP01) connected to one drive and using a text editor app (note NotePad) I open MyFile.txt that is in OneDrive. If I move to my workstation (MyPC01) and open MyFile.txt using a text editor (not NotePad) I can have teh file open on both systems. If a change is made to MyFile.txt on either PC, the other will get a notice that the file has changed and tge text editor app asks me if I want to reload the updated file. This is expected behavior. SCENARIO2: I am at my laptop (named MyLP01) connected to one drive and using a text editor app (note NotePad) I open MyFile.txt that is in OneDrive. Without closing the file or altering it, I activate teh VPN to my office and then I launch RDP (Remote Desktop) and connect my pc at work (MyWORKPC01). I then launch a text editor app (not NotePad) and open MyFile.txt located in OneDrive. When I try to open teh file after about 15-20 seconds I get an error msg that there is a problem accessing teh file. Why in scenario 1 can I have 1 file in OneDrive open from 2 different systems but I can't in scenario#2? Thanks5Views0likes0CommentsSharing Link - Something Went Wrong
I've had a lot of trouble recently with the use of sharing links. I'll create a sharing link from within Office, send it out, then when someone clicks on it the link doesn't work. Yesterday this happened, so I created a new sharing link, then tested it myself. The other users were able to access the document and respond with comments, so this morning I updated the document, and when I look in OneDrive now, the document is no longer listed as Shared and the sharing link that worked yesterday no longer works. Has anyone else observed this sort of behavior and have you found any solutions? The error you get on attempted access is: Sorry, something went wrong Sorry, you cannot access this document. Please contact the person who shared it with you. TECHNICAL DETAILS Troubleshoot issues with Microsoft SharePoint Foundation.

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.15Views0likes0CommentsSlow OneDrive uploadspeed!
For a few years i used an university MS-account with 2TB OneDrive storage. Now these cooperation runs out and i made my own MS account with those 1TB OneDrive storage. I have like ~500GB of data in that old OneDrive and right now try to copy everything to my new personal one... But the uploadspeed is horrible! Referring to speedtests I have like 50Mbit/s (Ethernet so quite stable) so ~ like 6.25MB/s upload. The maximum onedrive reaches is like 1.5MB/s.... and in average i get like 750kB/s... My PC is already running for 2 days... Do you have any idea to solve this problem or is this just something i have to accept? Is it possible that institutions like universities have better uploadspeeds, or are just prioritized and so on? Thanks in advance!

My team is relatively new to using one drive. We are looking to migrate our files over to OneDrive to be able to collaboratively work on files however we cant seem to share one drive files directly from an outlook email e.g. via attach file. For addiitonal context our files are housed in an ms teams 'Files' section which I have then synced to my computer so these can be accessed through file explorer. However when I try to attach a file from an outlook email and choose a file in one of these synced folders it just downloads and attaches as a local file. I am aware you can use the 'browse web locations' under the attach files drop down however I then have to manually navigate through all the subfolders until I get to the target documents' location. Ideally I want to be able to pin onedrive folders to my quick access that I can use to reach the onedrive files and not download them as local files to attach. Any tips on sharing OneDrive files directly from outlook would be great.Solved74Views0likes2CommentsPNG 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.32KViews0likes5Comments
