Add Shortcut to Files fails
My wife and I have a family Office 365 subscription. I have shared a folder with her with permissions to edit. She gets the email confirming this and can open the link and see the files in the folder. When she clicks "Add shortcut to My files" she gets a message "1 shortcut wasn't added". This happens using Onedrive web (through Edge) and on the Onedrive app on her iPhone. On the iPhone she hit "Add Shortcut to Files" and it says "By addding "Folder Name" to your OneDrive, you can sync it on your computers with other OneDrive files". When she clicks OK it says "Adding" and then comes up with a message "Something went wrong". Any ideas?

How can I identify the specific file causing the issue? I don’t see the filename currently being processed. Help highly appreciated :-) Regards, Eric
Fresh Win11 install, fresh Office365 install, Onedrive backup no connection to OneDrive-service
Hi community, got a new laptop with win11. fresh installation, Installed Office 365 (family license) as first package. No firewall/Antivirus other backup software installed. Onedrive says it´s connected. But if I start to select folders (documents/pictures) to automatically backup, the feedback is "Problem with connecting to the onedrive-service" File length or file names can´t be the issue, same error if folders are empty (fresh installation) No matter if I´m connected through my router (LAN/WLAN), hotspot on my mobile phone, neighbour´s network. Tried all resetting options Microsoft and web search is giving. No other result. Can anyone help me? trying to reach the support leads to "this support is currently not available"Microsoft 365 OneDrive Android (OxygenOS 13.1) login fails with WebView / Error 2604
On OneDrive Android app, login through Microsoft 365 work / corporate profile fails and always ends up with either blank screen or "No Internet connection" error 2604. Here's the details: Device & Environment: Device: OnePlus 8 Pro (IN2023) OS Version: OxygenOS 13.1 (build IN2023_13.1.0.591(EX01)) Android System WebView Version: 142.0.7444.102 App Affected: OneDrive (latest version from Google Play, 26th Nov 2025) Network: Wi-Fi / Cellular (both tested) VPN/ Private DNS / AdBlockers: Disabled Problem Description: Attempting to log in to OneDrive using a corporate/work Microsoft 365 account: The login screen either shows a blank white screen or fails immediately with Error 2604: “No network”, despite internet connectivity being functional. Logging in with the same credentials in Chrome works, confirming network is not the issue. Issue persists after clearing app data, reinstalling OneDrive, updating Chrome, updating Android System WebView, and ensuring all app permissions and background data settings are correct. Steps to Reproduce: Start with OnePlus 8 Pro (IN2023) running OxygenOS 13.1 Ensure Android System WebView is version 142.0.7444.102 Install latest OneDrive app from Google Play Open OneDrive and attempt to log in with corporate/work Microsoft 365 credentials Observe blank screen or error 2604 Expected Behavior: OneDrive should allow login with corporate Microsoft 365 account Embedded WebView authentication should complete successfully Account token should be saved for ongoing use Additional Notes: Problem appears specific to embedded WebView login on this OS/device combination Likely a systemic issue affecting Microsoft 365 apps relying on WebView for login flows on OxygenOS 13.1 Logging in to a personal outlook.com microsoft account works normally. Hence, it seems to be tied to the WebView failure. Is there any fix to this?OneDrive - Mass File Deletion by OneDrive
I noticed in late July/early August that files in my OneDrive folders suddenly vanished. More than 25 years' worth data gone. Close to 300 GB of both personal and business data. Only the files were gone. The folders and file structure remained untouched. My OneDrive space is 2 TB. The Recycle Bin was empty. My OneDrive account has been active since OneDrive started and remains so without interruption. Through the forum community I learned that I am not alone with my frustrations. Microsoft Support scheduled a telephone call. The gentleman who called was rude. He said the only way files were deleted was by the user (i.e., me). That suggestion is ridiculous as it suggests I went into hundreds of individual folders and subfolders to delete files but leave the folder structure intact. The gentleman said there was no way OneDrive or Microsoft could cause that to happen. News flash. It wasn't just me. I later submitted a request for assistance by messaging OneDrive Support asking my issue to be escalated to the OneDrive Engineering Team for a One-Time Data Restoration (OTDR). I'm still waiting for a response or even as much as an acknowledgement of my support request. Does anyone else recognize this issue? What other ideas have others tried that worked to fix the problem? Any ideas on how I get my files back?
Onedrive continously signing out
Hi, I wondered if anyone can help.... Onedrive used to sync files from MS Teams Sharepoint like a dream until about 10 days ago. Now the desktop client seems to drop connection constantly as though the network is droppoing or firewall is blocking things.... Before I started there, I thought I would ask if anyone else has had this recently.... Nothing I do makes OneDrive stay signed in.... I have already ensured my Dell 7310 is fully up to date on Bios and software. Signed out of MS Teams, O365, Onedrive Cleared cache from C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\OneDrive Full shutdown, restart, login everywhere and OneDrive signs in sees 15 changes and signs out..... I have even unlinked the laptop, done the above again, relinked the laptop, it syncs and then signs out..... Has anyone got any ideas??
Allowing External Access
Hi guys, I want to allow guest external access for the folder. I followed the guide and video posted by Microsoft: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/solutions/collaborate-on-documents?view=o365-worldwide I changed the setting in the SharePoint settings, in the identity settings, and I even changed the default permission from edit to view. The only change that went through is the default permission. When I go to my OneDrive and share something, the default is now view; however, I still can't share anything outside my organisation. Can anyone help me find out why? Does it take time for the settings to be pushed? Hope someone can help me.Move files from Account A to Account B 165 GB data
I’ve been using Microsoft Office 365 Family for several years, sharing it with my family members. We have 6 accounts, each with 1 TB of storage. One of my accounts has now reached 985 GB, so I need to transfer files from Account A (my account) to Account B (my wife’s account). These files mainly consist of photos and videos — over 200,000 files in total. I tried transferring a 6 GB wedding shoot (.ISO format), but it took more than an hour. Re-downloading and uploading all the data isn’t feasible as my internet connectivity is limited to 100 mbps only. I’m looking for the best and most efficient way to move these files directly between OneDrive accounts.

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?
