One Drive options disappeared in file explorer
As a small business we change the color of folder in our one drive so everyone knows the status without having to dig into the folder to figure it out. We have been able to right click the folder and go to "One Driver" and there was a folder color option. That option is no longer there. We can still go to the web app and change the color which does change in file explorer but this becomes a real pain when you are doing a bunch of these every day. I have done a lot of things I have found online but still can not get this option back. It has vanished from multiple computers as well as every account on my computer. This does not see to be a server side issue but rather an issue with the newer release of One Drive from what appears to be released last week. How can we fix this or is there a way I can go back to a previous version of One Drive where it worked?
Synchronisation d'un fichier impossibel
La synchronisation de OneDrive ne se fait pas sur un fichier dont le nom serait trop long. Le problème est que jene trouve pas ce fichier autant par l'explorateur windows que par une commande cmd !!! Quelqu'un a une idée pour que je puisse supprimer ce fichier, qui m'est inutile...
OneDrive is soooooooooooooooooooooo slow!
Why is OneDrive for Business so unacceptably slow? I've had a case open with Microsoft Support since February and to date they have involved several different teams, run numerous diagnostics and tests remotely on my computer, but still haven't been able to improve let alone resolve the very poor download speeds we are getting across the company. They can see the issue with their own eyes, and the under-performing tests are appearing in their diagnostic logs, but for whatever reason they cannot fix their own systems! We have a fibre-optic leased line, 100Mbit over a 1Gbit bearer. Running a speed test, I am getting the full 100Mbit up and down, and yet when I am downloading a file (whether it's a few MB or a few hundred MB) from OneDrive, the download rate hovers between 500Kb/s and 800Kb/s. Uploading the OneDrive for Business is fine - the upload rate is between 7Mb/s and 9Mb/s. It's just the download rate that's the issue. Whenever any of our users save anything to OneDrive and the document is no longer cached, they have to wait for what feels like an eternity for the file to be downloaded before it can be opened. If they're opening the file via an application, then that application will hang and stop responding until the file has been downloaded from their OneDrive. Before we switched to Microsoft 365, we hosted everything locally. Anything we tried to open would do so almost instantly. But using OneDrive feels like we have travelled back in time to the days of 56K/ISDN. If this is how OneDrive has been designed, then it should not be labelled as a business service. There are other solutions out there from competitors that outperform OneDrive, and unfortunately if these issues are not resolved soon, I doubt we will be the only business who migrates away from OneDrive or even Microsoft altogether.
OneDrive Archival of Unlicensed Users
The change enforcing archival of unlicensed OneDrive users after 93 days was announced in January of last year but seems to be hitting tenants very gradually. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/unlicensed-onedrive-accounts?WT.mc_id=365AdminCSH_spo I'm curious what other organizations are doing to tackle this change and how widespread the rollout has been so far. When the change was announced, did your organizations do anything to prepare? For those of you who are already seeing archival in your tenant When did it actually begin? Particularly for very high volumes of unlicensed accounts, how are you handling this? Have you had any luck with Purview content search and export for retrieval of files?
Files shared with Anyone sometimes prompt users to request acccess to the file
My company is experiencing an intermittent problem where sometimes a OneDrive for Business file shared with the setting "Anyone with this link can edit" prompts the user the file is being shared with to request access. If the user tries to open the file a second time, they can then access the file without requesting access. We're wondering why that access request prompt sometimes happens and how to prevent it. It doesn't happen consistently, so we're having trouble reproducing and troubleshooting it. Has anyone seen this before and know how to fix it?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.
