Windows 10: My One Drive is showing a Red X and I'm not having any luck with my settings. Is there a...

My One Drive is showing a Red X, which I believe is a problem syncing my files. I have hundreds of documents that I'd like to transfer to my One Drive storage, for when my computer crashes.I can manually upload them 1 at a time, but there's got to be a better way!!! I've tried my settings and it shows that it's syncing, but the red X is still there. Btw, there's plenty of storage available.Is there another way to back up these docs, or is there a live human at Microsoft that I can speak to on the phone, so I can fix this in 1 session without dragging it out?

all my network drives have red X's

Hi Christophe,

The red "X" icon that shows on your network drives indicates that your network devices are not connected. To effectively assist you with your concern, we'd like to ask the following:

• Have you made any changes on your device prior to your concern?
• Are you getting any error messages when accessing the drives?
• What are the troubleshooting steps that you performed to resolve your concern?
• Could you attach related screenshots on your next post to help us understand the situation better.

We're looking forward to your response.

 

Ethernet shows red X and does not appear in settings, but still works


Not sure why this is happening. I have working ethernet and am connected, it works fine. But the taskbar icon shows a red X over it, and the tooltip says "Not Connected - No connections are available". Looking in "Network & Internet", ethernet is not even listed there. And before anyone suggests wireless interference .. this PC does not have a wireless card or integrated wireless.

Are you using an Insider build? This is a known issue in one recent one (can't remember which one). I believe the latest preview build fixes it.
