Weird serious problem with shared folders in personal Onedrive after windows 10 update.
Hi there, Last week my PC got updates from MS for windows 10 , and after the reboot my Onedrive local client started doing weird things deleting folders and renaming them to names with -COMPUTERNAME behind them. My setup is as follows: I'm logged on to my own Onedrive In my Onedrive I have shared folders with data that other family members in a family subsciption shared with me. There is a lot of data in them, some have 660Gb of pics and videos. I added those shared folders to my Onedrive, so I can access them in my own explorer without logging on to another account. This setup has been working fine for years, up until this MS update... I noticed after the reboot that my Onedrive Personal client was deleting a lot of folders from the local Onedrive folder on my harddrive, but only the folders that have the shared offline data, they were in the recycing BIN. I tried to re-connect the Onedrive but nothing changed, the online view in my Onedrive was still intact , including the shared folders from other Onedrives, but locally these were gone. So at that point I saw a different file structure online compared to the one in my own Explorer. I then tried to restore them from the recycling bin, only to find out that Onedrive would rename them to 'ORIGINALNAME-WIN10' where WIN10 is my computername. It then started uploading all this data AGAIN to my online )storage, the 'shared (Gedeeld) folders were copied into my own drive with the label 'private' behind it, but that is absolutely not what should happen, my own drive would have been full within a day if I didn't break off this operation. Here you can see a screenshot of what was happening, while it was still 'syncing': I tried re-installing and re-connecting the Onedrive client, and also removing all the extra copies of the folders online AND offline, hoping it would resync the whole thing from the Original online shared folders. The shared folders just don't turn up anymore in my local view. Instead the Onedrive client started renaming even more shared folders that seemed untouched before, and uploading the contents to my own Onedrive.... So to make it absolutely clear what happened: the shared folders that were only in the Cloud didn't turn up locally anymore, the shared folders that were on both sides were renamed locally and copied back to the cloud as a new private copy folder (as you can see in the screenshot). Did MS change something with the last updates that forces shared data to actually be taking up space in your own Onedrive, where this was not the case before? Or is this just something that went corrupt on my own PC and can I fix it somehow? I can't imagine them changing something that has such an impact without any warning since it causes a lot of trouble for people using shared folders and also a LOT of network traffic if everyone with shared folders gets into these issues.... I hope some real expert on Onedrive can tell me what is going on, and esp. how to fix it? To be honest, this seems a PRETTY SERIOUS issue if other have it too... ;) Marcel
Can't stop sharing folder (no stop sharing option)
Want to stop sharing a folder, but under -manage access. I only see "share" and the folder is already shared with family and one other person. "Stop sharing" is nowhere to be seen. Why can't I stop sharing this folder? Another bug in Microsoft system again? Cheers Mags
Problem with editing files in Onedrive in a SharePoint library linked to in Onedrive
Problem with editing files in Onedrive in a SharePoint library linked to in Onedrive Since yesterday, all employees have been reporting that they cannot edit files in a SharePoint library linked to in Onedrive. When employees edit files or add files, an error message appears stating that file access is denied. You must provide administrator permissions. This problem only exists when accessing files in Onedrive. This problem does not exist in SharePoint itself. There the files can be edited as usual. What could be the cause here?
Uploaded files are nowhere to be found
Greetings I installed OneDrive on my computer and changed the default location. I then uploaded 11GB of data by copying and pasting into the OneDrive folder. The copy was successful. When I click on the OneDrive folder the files are there. The issue is that I can't find the newly uploaded files in office 365 OneDrive site under My Files or any other place. Where is the default location of the uploaded files in office 365 OneDrive site? I also checked Sharepoint but still can't find the files. Is there a way to find my 11GB files on Office 365 OneDrive site?Can find the copied files
Greetings, I downloaded and installed OneDrive and all went well. We have a office365 Business account which I have an account. After the OneDrive install and authentication, I didn't like the default location of the OneDrive folder on my machine so I unlinked OneDrive and changed the default location from c:\users\administrator to d: in some directory. I then copied 11GB data from one folder to the new location of OneDrive (120K+ files). The speed was amazing! But now when I go to my work office365 cloud site, I can't find those files. I looked in OneDrive and SharePoint but they are nowhere to be found. My local machine OneDrive directory still shows those files in it so they must be in the cloud somewhere. Any ideas where I should look for the files that I uploaded on the office365 cloud site?😅 OneDrive Upload/Download Speed Help
Does anyone know of how I can improve my OneDrive download speeds? I cannot get my computer to download from OneDrive faster than 3.5-4.7Mbps. I've ensured my OneDrive settings do NOT limit my downloads I went so far as to plug my computer directly into my modem; even with 350Mpbs download and 650Mbps upload - still limited to really sub-4.0Mbps download speed from OneDrive. I understand my laptop hardware isn't limiting anything: CPU - 11th gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-1135G7 @2.40GHz Memory - 2x 16gb DDR4 Thank you for any and all recommendations, exploratory questions, or knowledge sharing!!!
Recent files page - finding path to file
Hi All, On the front page of onedrive it shows all your recent files. Is there a quick way to know what path these files have? Currently, I go to click on it, open the file and find the path from once the document is opened. You may ask ... what the problem is then? I feel there needs to be a feature upon hovering over the file (in the recent files view) that tells you the path. Is there some tooltip customisation perhaps where I can configure this? Alternatively, could a column be added to the recent files (alongside 'name, 'opened' and 'owner') that shows path details? If so, please do tell if there is a way to do this. Any insight appreciated, Thanks.
