Windows 10: my one drive has sync issue . It show that " no access permission to item "

no access permissions to the item in OneDrive

Fresh install ( but have had this previously, as well), and install a few programs that put links on the desktop. OneDrive is syncing the desktop.

Create a folder on the desktop, and move the shortcuts to this folder.

When Onedrive tries to sync, get the error for each of the shortcuts (ie if there are 5 shortcuts in the folder get "5 sync issues"):

"No access permissions to the item.

It appears that you do not have access permissions to the item. Ensure that you have the right permissions to allow the item to sync."

If I copy the folder to another area, error goes away. If I then copy it back to the desktop, error returns immediately.

It's a PITA!

Is there a fix?

Thanks.

 

One Drive Sync Issues with Desktop Shortcuts

I am encountering an issue with One Drive syncing shortcuts placed in a folder on the desktop. This is occurring on a fresh install of Windows with all current updates applied. One drive indicates sync issues with the following message: "No access permissions
to the item. It appears that you do not have access permissions to the item. Ensure that you have the right permissions to allow the item to sync."

I found that by doing the following on every shortcut, I can get them to sync:

• Right-click shortcut: Properties: Security: Advanced: Change permissions
• Disable inheritance: convert inherited permissions into explicit permissions on this object
• Enable inheritance: apply
• New permission entries are added for SYSTEM, Administrators, and user account with inheritance from c:/users/[user account]

At this point the shortcut will sync. I can remove the four old permission entries with inheritance: none, or leave them there. it doesn't appear to make any difference.

It is obviously rather time consuming to have to do this for every shortcut created and put into a folder on the desktop.

Can someone identify what the root issue is and how it can be fixed without needing to edit permissions on each and every shortcut?

Any help appreciated, thanks, Rob.

If the issue still persists, we would suggest you to follow the steps mentioned below to re-map the drive.

1. Disconnect the drive by right click on the drive and select disconnect (if the drive is mapped).
   
2. Then re-map the drive by referring to Map a network drive
   and check if it resolves the issue.
