  1. Missing files from OneDrive in file explorer


    In my Personal one drive that's in file explorer I have a folder that's now empty. I think I can remember moving the folder out and then I put it back in but now it's empty so no idea what's going on. I do know that recycle bin is empty

  2. OneDrive missing from Windows Explorer navigation pane

    When I first cleaned installed Windows 10 v1809 on my machine I applied a Group Policy setting for OneDrive to Prevent the Usage of OneDrive for File Storage to ENABLED. Of course, that would remove the OneDrive from the left side navigation pane within Windows File Explorer. But now, I set the Group Policy back to NOT CONFIGURED, rebooted the machine and the OneDrive is still missing from the the left side of the Windows File Explorer navigation pane as shown in my image. I even performed the command GPUPDATE /FORCE.

    My laptop is a standalone, not part of a Domain.

    I tried all the things listed from the article below but with no luck. I also was able to sign in with my OneDrive account and that was all fine and OneDrive appeared on the File Explorer pane. But once I UNLINKED my account from OneDrive, the OneDrive was still missing.

    Even if no Group Policies are set, and even NOT signing into OneDrive, by default, the OneDrive icon should still appear on the left side navigation pane when launching Windows File Explorer.

    And suggestions?

    My guess is to recreate my user profile, but I don't really want to do that now.

    Hello,

    Thank you for posting your concern here in Microsoft Community and welcome to the Windows 10 Family. I would be happy to assist you.

    To be able to assist you better, kindly provide us few more details on the below questions.

    1. How did you install Windows 10? Was it an upgrade or a clean installation?

    2. Which was the previous Operating System on this PC?

    3. Have you checked the
    OneDrive web
    to check if all the data is available?

    As an initial recommendation, I would suggest you to refer the article below and perform the necessary troubleshooting steps to restore the missing files.

    Find lost or missing files in OneDrive

    Additionally, you also need to check if the option To keep fewer OneDrive files from being saved on your PC
    is set. Because, certain folders won’t show up in File Explorer anymore with this option selected, but they’ll still be online at OneDrive.com.

    Follow:
    Keep Fewer OneDrive Files on your PC


    Hope the above information was helpful. If you need further assistance, please do let us know and we would be happy to help you further.

    OneDrive ixon missing from system tray

    Desktop PC has been powered off for several months. When it was powered up on Sat. the OneDrive icon was missing from th System tray. Starting OneDrive opens the webpage. Opening OneDrive from File Explorer shows very few files.
