I'm hoping somebody here can help me, because I can't find any kind of "Support" link just for OneDrive. Yesterday, for no reason I can determine, OneDrive (personal) deleted a couple thousand old files of mine and put them in the Recycle Bin. I was not using even half of my 1 TB storage, and I did not delete these files myself. They were in various folders. Some had been accessed very recently, some had not been accessed in years. I looked for the files on the app on my phone, on the website, and by trying to find deleted files through apps on my phone (i.e. I looked for a deleted Excel file and it was not found). They were all different file types - Excel, Word, PDF, pictures. I cannot figure out why it did this, and I haven't been able to find any documentation of a known glitch. Has anyone else had this happen?53Views0likes1CommentOnedrive 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?73Views1like1CommentUnable to access Onedrive through manager
Attempt to login to one drive through manager and stuck on this before a screen white out. from dev tools Walked through this: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/reset-onedrive-34701e00-bf7b-42db-b960-84905399050c and it did not help. Stuck doing the same loading error out in manager. Also attempted to reset onedrive directory. Same issue. When attempting to open or move files in the onedrive directory I get: Error 0x8007016A: The cloud file provider is not running Unsure if stuck in sync or what. This is day two of this occurring even after comp reset. Never ran into this issue before. Unable to find any indication of Microsoft onedrive being down either so this error is a bit confusing to me. Thanks for the help in advance!113Views1like2CommentsSyncing shortcuts between two machines with C: and D: drive
Hi guys, A colleague of mine is having an issue where he is creating shortcuts on his laptop (which has onedrive on the c: drive), which then sync to his desktop but go on to break on that machine due to onedrive being on a D: labelled drive. Is there a way I can set up the shortcut to avoid this issue? In case I've not explained it coherently: - creates shortcut on laptop which is on C: drive - works on that machine - desktop is synced to his PC, which then gets the shortcut but it is broken/cant see the designated folder due to onedrive being on D: Any help is appreciatedSolved28Views0likes1CommentDate taken option removed!
I’m finding One Drive increasingly frustrating as a photographer as the date taken option has been removed and my files are badly muddled, this option was part of the app for years so why did the developer remove it. Very annoying for professional photo work so bring it back.99Views1like2CommentsCan I delete data on my computer after transferring it to OneDrive?
I just started using our Microsoft 365 account. I want to collect my current files in a single archive. I have 1TB of memory on Onedrive. Is it okay if I delete all the data from my computer after transferring it to OneDrive? Or does all my data have to be on both OneDrive and my computer?4.9KViews0likes8CommentsRestoring whole One Drive
Hello, I was clearing one of my devices before giving it away. It seems to have deleted a lot of files and folders on One Drive - which I thought was separate from an individual device. How do I get these files and folders back - not sure if they are all in the recycle bin. Thanks in advance Martin66Views0likes1CommentDownloading photos from onedrive only allows a .json format.
Trying to download photos from the web version of Onedrive, and the only possible format I can use (ie will only allow me to select) is a .json, which obviously won't save as a photo. Anyone know why this is? Have tried as a different user, and believe it is OK, so this user has somehow changed "permissions" (or something...) somewhere? Also, if I share, I get no choice of permissions etc for the recipient. Clues please. Thanks.3.5KViews0likes7CommentsOnedrive recover deleted files

After installing OneDrive, I noticed a change to what my normal file structure is. When I do This PC > Local Drove (C:) > users > Username> documents The document folder is empty. I need to do PC > Local Drove (C:) > users > Username> OneDrive >documents to see my documents. Did I set up OneDrive incorrectly?75Views4likes2Comments
