    File view changed since other day update.

    Hi,

    Changing the view of your files on the File Explorer window will allow you to access and locate the file properly depending on your preferred preference. We suggest following these steps to change the file explorer view:

    • Open the your OneDrive folder/File explorer.
    • Right-click on an empty space.
    • Select View on the drop-down menu.
    • Select your preferred view type.

    Note: Each folder have it's own individual setting. That means each of the folder has it's own set up view that you may need to change manually.
