    Double files on One Drive and now no space.


    I recently was working with One Drive and could only see my connected Business One Drive account and not my Personal One Drive account in the File Explorer. This I could only access via browser.

    I then added the Personal One Drive so that I could see it in the File Explorer and now all my folders/files are doubled, some files are missing and One Drive is full.


    How can I revert to how I had it before or get what I want which is to view the One Drrive folders in File Explorer?


    Thanks,

    Peter

    Viewing File Explorer as single spacing instead of double spacing

    No, the File Explorer in W10 continues to display file names in

    a double-space format, such as the one I am typing

    here. There is no way that I can find that will enable displaying them as

    single spaced lines, and the one suggestion I got was not useful.

    Kind of a useless "feature" don't you think, especially if you are

    searching through a long list of files for one particular file.

    Similarly, dropping color coding for all Office applications now deprives me

    of a real feature that I have used to great effect for years and through several

    versions of Windows and Office Outlook, especially in organizing Notes by categories, and Contacts by type.

    Lastly, now I notice in Outlook Emails, the Delete, Respond, Read/Unread Toggle, Move, and Followup icons are no longer with each email (where there is PLENTY of room) to the right-hand margin, where one has to mouse over to them. Really? Perhaps someone
    could forward these observations/complaints to the graphics people who keep churning out unnecessary changes.

    And I would really like to get these three elements back. I suppose some folks don't need the (for example) color coding, or mind (for example) the double spacing file lists. Why not put these decisions in the Options popup?

    Thanks,

  4. Double files on One Drive and now no space.

    Lost space of Pen Drive

    Hello,

    Thank you for bringing up your query on Microsoft Community.

    We regret the inconvenience caused to you.


    • Have you tried connecting to a different computer?
    I suggest you to connect the USB flash drive to a different computer and check.

    First back up all the data from your USB drive to another location.

    I suggest you to connect the USB flash drive to a different computer and check.

    Let us try the following steps, and check if it helps.

    Step 1: I suggest you to refresh the drive letter and then try to rescan the drives that are connect to the computer and check.

    To refresh drive letter:

    • Open Computer Management (Local).
    • In the console tree, click Computer Management (Local), click
      Storage, and then click Disk Management.
    • Click Action, and then click Refresh.
    • Once you have refreshed connect the new zip drive and to update hardware information, click Rescan Disks instead.
    Step 2: For unallocated space on USB drive


    • Press the Windows key, and type Diskpart.

    • Click the result to open the DiskPart command prompt window.

    • In the command prompt window, type list disk and hit Enter.

    • The removable USB drive or hard disk will be shown under
      Disk 1.

    • Type in the following commands and hit Enter.
    select disk 1

    Clean

    create partition primary


    • The first command selects your removable USB drive.

    • The Clean command deletes all the current partitions present on the USB drive.

    • The Create primary partition creates a fresh partition and allocates all the unallocated space on this fresh partition.

    • Type Exit to close the command prompt window.

    • Unplug your USB drive and plug it back again.

    Hope it helps.

    Let us know the status, we are glad to assist you further.
