Windows 10: OneDrive can't add your folder right now. Please contact support.

I have recently started uni and tried to sign in on my new One Drive via files in order to sync the two. It let's me sign in and get to the 'this is your folder stage', but after that it displays 'One Drive can't add your folder right now. Please contact support.' Contacted support and there was seemingly nothing they could do. Any ideas how to resolve this would be appreciated.

OneDrive unable to find my contacts to share folders

garybo125 thanks for your suggestion which I did but it did not resolve the issue with OneDrive insisting to use my contact's first email address instead of his second email address. Eventually I deleted my contact's first email address from my Outlook.com contacts list and OneDrive then added the correct address. It seems that if you have a contact with two email addresses OneDrive will always choose one and not the other!

Berton OneDrive may not use the built-in Contacts Folder in C:\Users\USERNAMEHERE as mine is empty but of course I cannot verify this.

 

Windows 10 - OneDrive

Right click on the app and one of the properties has an option to not automatically start it. Uncheck, restart the computer, and it should stop. If you want to go another step further, find the OneDrive app in the start menu, right click on it and uninstall.

If that is still insufficient, there is a batch uninstaller for OneDrive available online. I can copy the code here if you need it.

 

OneDrive unable to find my contacts to share folders

In Windows 10 Home, Office OneNote 2010 and Office Outlook
2010 and using Windows OneDrive Free.
When I try to share a folder by email in OneDrive the
contacts that appear in the list are not all my Office Outlook contacts and
when I enter a recipient’s second email address manually I get a message “We
couldn’t find an exact match” and OneDrive insists in entering his first email
address. *Redface


My question is from which address book does OneDrive extract
email addresses?
How can I add or force OneDrive to use Office Outlook
contacts?
