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

In Visio, there are two types of pages, foreground and background. When you print a Visio document, only the foreground pages print. So, what is the purpose of the background pages? They are there to apply consistent items into the background of a Visio page that may reflect values from the foreground page it is attached to. Why Background Pages? Consider if there were no background pages. If you had a six page document and you wanted to number the pages in the upper right corner, you would need to place a text shape containing the page number at that location on all the pages. You co

So for example if John Doe have submitted "form A" previously and the data is stored in Excel or a Sharepoint List, can i build a new "form B" that references data from this excel / sharepoint list and pre-fill it automatically when John Doe tries to fill up this "form B". I dont want the data to appear on the URL as parameters because some data could be sensitive.

I went to the main SharePoint site and checked my permissions using the "Check Permissions" option, and it showed that I have Read permission.When I go to the other site, I can see the Home Page, and when I open Site Contents > Site Pages, I can also see 10 pages listed.But when I try to open the Site Pages, only the Home Page is visible — the other 9 pages are not visible (or not opening).Why is this happening? Please explain.

I had a folder shared with me, and I could fully sync it to my own mac - all the office files were available offline on my own mac (word, excel, ppt). It appeared as a folder in Finder in the Onedrive folder.Since yesterday the shared folder has disappeared from finder, and all the files are no longer on the mac. They don't show up in a spotlight search. The folder has been replaced by a url that opens the shared folder online.The folder is fully available when I access Onedrive through the web.I can also open the shared files on Onedrive through the native Mac apps, if they appear in recent f

Since last year, I've been encountering the same issues with all shared folders. These folders were created by other accounts, which have granted me edit permissions. The problems are as follows:I can't synchronize shared folders with my OneDrive, neither online nor in File Explorer. Instead, I can only create a link to the shared folder on both, which requires File Explorer to open a browser window to access the link.Despite having edit permissions, I am unable to create new folders or files. I can rename and delete existing folders, but I cannot add anything new (refer to the attached images

Dear Support Team,we have created a Sharepoint Agent for the primary purpose of extracting knowledge from specific documents and answering based on the sources. In the agents settings we gave it access to specific files & didnt change that after creating the agent. However when a user asked a question he recieved an answer based on a document that was stored in an entirely diffrent location (which a colleague previously had shared with him via teams) and the agent cited the document as source. The user had the permission to see it but we did not expected it to be returned as it was not an

I have a custom JSON column which consists of 6 icons which indicate a status. Upon going to the list only 4 out of 6 icons load correctly, the other ones are invisible. Interestingly the icons which are visible are not in consecutive order, the order is as follows: 1st, 4th, 5th and 6th.But when you scroll down to the bottom of the list every element (around 30ish) gets loaded and the missing icons appear and work just fine. Switching between views also reveals the missing icons. Once the tab is reloaded the icons disappear again. It seems like there is something wrong with the updating of cu

I have an excel workbook I'm using to creating a work schedule. I currently have two spreadsheets, template and May Shifts. The May Shifts spreadsheet has cells linked to the template. That way I can work on the schedule in the "template" and it updates in the "May Shifts" spreadsheet and then I can upload it to Shifts in Teams. I would like to use the same workbook and just create a new "June Shifts" spreadsheet, but I want it linked back to the template without affecting the "May shifts." Is this possible?Here is the document: Official Template.xlsx

For the past year or so working as a freelancer, clients have been sending their word documents to be reformatted because when they do, the formatting gets messed up. I get their document and retype it, or try to change their document, however I get the document all set up, save it and send to my client. They get it and the formatting is constantly skewed. I have even saved it as an older version so it would not do that, but it continues to mess up. Please tell me what I can do so that when I send it back to my client it is not a mess, especially when some of the documents may need to be edite
