  1. Green ticks on my icons and can't open jpeg files and other apps


    After Windows 10 updated, my personalised desktop background was gone and when I tried to choose the jpeg file a message came up saying this file cannot be accessed by the system. This message had come up with many photos and documents. I can't access my apps on my desktop and there is a green tick mark in a circle on the left side of my icons and documents.


    How can I resolve this? My Virus check says there are no threats so what can I do? Please help...

    :)

    Green ticks appear when Onedrive is running. Exit One drive and the ticks disappear. Check for Onedrive icon on taskbar it may be set to start when windows starts. It has something to do with syncing files.

    I understand that the green tick is related to the one drive but I notice now that some of my folders and files now have RR or R or just the green tick, does anyone know if this is this something else that is related to OneDrive or is this another application?

    I don't really understand the point of these icon overlays when their meaning is not prominently documented. Even trying to find out information about one drive's green tick is not straight forward, surely if they are going to be used then a right click
    and properties should have a section that informs the user as to what they refer to.
