Windows 10: Folder permission in OneDrive business is not writable. Is this expected?

Steps to reproduce:1. Create a Test folder under OneDrive business root folder.2. Check folder permissions using C++ filesystem API like this:``` C++20#include #include bool is_readonlyconst std::filesystem:ath& p{ using std::filesystem:erms; auto s = std::filesystem::statusp; return perms::none == s.permissions & perms:wner_write perms::group_write perms:thers_write;}int main{ auto path = std::filesystem:ath"C:\\Users\\USER_NAME\\OneDrive - COMPANY\\Test"; auto readonly = is_readonlypath;&nb

OneDrive folder permissions - Fix


Found the problem.

While you are still listed as the owner of each subfolder in the OneDrive folder, some subfolders no longer have inherited permissions enabled.

If you Enable inheritance and OK for each affected subfolder in the OneDrive folder, it will no longer have any access issues or UAC prompts afterwards.

 

Windows 10 - OneDrive

Anyone know how to remove "OneDrive - For Business" from the Explorer navigation panel? I've tried just about every registry modification, and windows policy for "Onedrive" but they only seem to work for the consumer product, not for onedrive for business.

The onedrive product alone is so damn annoying and continues to load itself upon startup, even when it's explicitly remove from startup. It continues to automatically load and unload itself from within the startup folder... while I'm actively watching it load itself into the startup folder.
