Windows 10: Find Duplicate Files in OneDrive Online

Hello,Is there a method to detect duplicate files ONLINE in OneDrive?*Not locally in the files structure*Or is the only way to sort by name and compare file size?What about issues when you have two files:"File1.log"and"File1.log - copy"that are the same size but have different content?Help?Thanks,

:)

 

onedrive duplicating my folders...

Hi.

Again, onedrive is going crazy and is duplicating my main folder, full of subfolders. It's locking me out of all my files. I have windows 10, Office 365 home. I paused synch at the moment before I have 1000 copy of my folder, which I can't open anyway!
Please don't ask me any question that will further delay the repair. Simply give me a step by step solution and then improve onedrive so this won't happen again to so many of us. I suggest you also add "onedrive" in the list of "Windows Topics" below since
thousands of users have issues with it.

Thanks

Michel

OneDrive Duplication of files

Hi,

Im'using Onedrive for years without mistake before.

Since some days, I encounter a big problem with OneDrive.

I manage a lot of pictures using the keywords.

Since few days, each files with modified keyword are duplicated into the Onedrive folder into my computer.

If I delete this duplicated files, OneDrive made a new copy !

OneDrive give the message that it cannot merge the file and duplicate it.

I made an re-init of Onedrive without success.

Could I obtain help from the Community here ?

Please help me.

Thanks for alll response.

Duplicate OneDrive entry unexpectedly appears in File Explorer

You're welcome

You do have access, but the data that populates HKCU is only loaded for the logged in user by default. If you want to edit the HKCU data for another user when logged on as Administrator, you have to load their user hive into Regedit, edit as desired, and then unload the hive to save the changes.

1. Open RegEdit
2. Select the HKEY_USERS key
3. From the nemu: File -> Load Hive...
   
   
   
4. In the Load Hive dialog, navigate to the desired user's profile folder and select the ntuser.dat file
   
   
   
5. You'lll be prompted for a name, which can be anything -- it's not persistent with the file
   
   
   
6. And you then have access to the other user's registry hive
   
   
   

I'd like to see an export before you delete it! *Biggrin

I would start by deleting the corresponding key under:

• <User>\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Desktop\NameSpace
