Hi. I had some folders shared from different users in my OneDrive account. I had added the folders to my OneDrive with Add Shortcut to OneDrive button from Shared folders in cloud. The account is logged into a windows pc and every files including the folders shared with my were syncing fine until yesterday. Yesterday night the shared folders were completely removed from the Windows pc and folders are replaced with internet shortcut. This is such a big mess. I have tried unlinking the account and linking it back, changing the location of OneDrive on my windows pc and tried to get a new folder

Dear OneDrive users, We have been made aware of an issue concerning shared folders on OneDrive, where certain shared folders are displayed as .URL Internet shortcuts rather than actual folders within the "File Explorer". This has resulted in users being unable to browse the contents of these folders and instead are provided with a link to the OneDrive website. Impacted users:Users globally have reported this issue, where shared folders appear as link files (.URL) in File Explorer and not as actual folders, preventing normal browsing of folder contents. Specific Issues:Users can

When the problem with the OneDrive shared folders shortcuts showing up as Internet Shortcuts will eventually get solved? We have a major issue in our company's shared files and we spend triple the time to do a small work... This is totally unacceptable.....

Noticed on 9/27/24 I'm receiving the following error via web browser (Chrome and Edge), as well as the iOS app: "User content migrated. Cannot access disabled item." I can only see some of my files in the Recents view, but none of them open. Also, when I go to OneDrive settings, most of my settings are blank. I've verified my account is currently active.

Is there a way to tell Excel to add text to a cell based on the text in another cell and highlight that whole row without having to put a formula in any cell? I'd like to use Conditional Formatting, if that's an option. For example, if cell A2 has the letters AMD, I want Excel to automatically add the words "Requires update" in B2 and highlight it yellow.I have this formula =IF(COUNTIF(A2,"*amd*")=1,"Requires update","") and if I paste it in B2 it will automatically add “Requires update” if A2 has AMD. However, I don’t want to have to paste it into all cells in the B column.I’ve tr

I cancelled my Microsoft subscription in December in my billing and subscription history this is clarified as no recent bills or purchases yet I have had £8.49 withdrawn from my account both this month and last. I have checked my apple subscriptions and there aren’t any for Microsoft. So I am completely unsure as to why this is occurring. I would like a refund for this discrepancy as it is clear I do not have a purchase so there is no reason whatsoever for my being charged.Thank you

My Microsoft OneDrive folder has been taking a minute more to open a folder; each folder and each subfolder. It's unusable and Microsoft should have made this a priority fix, but for some unknown reason, apparently to even their support personnel, it hasn't been fixed.I'm not sure why Microsoft hasn't fixed this problem, unless its a 'competition' thing, but they're making it a lot harder on the subscribers (I presume they want to keep) than this has to be. I've actually started looking around for other cloud storage to avoid this program because of it. Perhaps they have also instructed thei

I opened a ticket at the end of March, with this issue:I have an account with the "onmicrosoft" domain, but the company does not have an IT team that manages existing Microsoft accounts, so someone in the organizacion changed the password for this account, but we do not know who did it. The account does not have an administrator, and the person who created it is no longer in the organization, but when l try to "forgot my password" a code is sent to an entmail address that we also do not know about, l think it would be the person who created it. Is there any way to change this password?Account:

d.docs.live.net is being used by default in far too many places, even when I check Save to computer by default as an Office option and disable file collaboration in OneDrive. The worst examples of this are: 1. in the taskbar Jump lists, which point to d.docs.live.net even when I have opened a local file from Explorer 2. In the Recent list in Backstage, again even when I have opened a local file from Explorer 3. When creating hyperlinks from a local file, their target defaults to d.docs.live.net. This is all very painful.Using latest MS365 subscription (Microsoft® Word for Microsoft 365 MSO (Ve

I'm the sole global admin and primary named user on a Microsoft 365 Business tenant (the subscription is under my personal/business name). Last month I replaced my iPhone, which had the Microsoft Authenticator app installed, and attempted to migrate my accounts. During the transfer process, the Authenticator app did not re-sync my 2FA Credentials, so now I'm completely locked out of my admin account, even though I still have the correct username and password stored in my password manager.Thankfully, I was still able to access this standard user account that I'm using to write this question (wh
