    OneDrive does not delete file from the cloud if i delete the file from my phone


    Hi,
    i have a very simple problem.

    I delete a synced blurry photo from my Android phone and expect that the same file gets deleted from Onedrive. However this does not happen and the folders become out of sync Camera roll directory.

    I tried both with and without the "Make available offline" option. I have tried clearing the cache, stopping the app and so on.

    To add insult to injury, if i try to delete the folder from OneDrive in hope to get it in sync again then it will warn me that it will delete the files from all my synced devices. That is the exact opposite to what it should do.

    What could be the problem?

    :)
