Windows 10: OneDrive folder connection lost after 1903 upgrade

I never had a problem with win10 upgrade but this time my onedrive folder is not working. Here is what happened


1. Upgraded to win10 1903 build

2. On logging in, I got a message that my onedrive folder cannot be found

I looked and my OneDrive folder and all the files were very much there in c:\users\myuser.000\onedrive

3. I clicked on the onedrive sync and logged in again with my usual id

4. That created a new OneDrive folder in the same folder c:\users\myuser.000\onedrive. This folder has onedrive icon. The older one has the normal folder icon.

5. The sync process started downloading all files again in this new folder

6. I paused the sync as I dont have disk space to since everything again and dont want to download 900GB data again.



Is there a way to tell onedrive to reuse the folder I already have? Or should I cut and paste all files from the older to new folder.


What is safer and supported?

app connection to onedrive

Hi Amrit,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

1. What happens when you try to connect this app to Cloud?
   
2. Are you getting any error code or error message while trying to connect?
   
3. Which version of Windows is running on your device?
   

Please follow the below suggested steps, so that you can link your app with Cloud (OneDrive).

1. Launch the
   Book Bazaar Reader app.
   
2. Right click on the launched Window.
   
3. You should be getting the options at the left bottom of the screen with
   Add a book, Cloud and Select.
   
4. Click on Cloud option, select
   Connect to the Cloud (OneDrive) and follow the onscreen prompts.
   
5. Sign in with the same user account which is associated with OneDrive to check the status of the issue.

Folder in Favorites lost


Had a folder in IE favorites named xxxxx favorites with many items in it. Don't know what I may have done but it is gone from the list. When I try to create a new folder it tells me that there is one already there, but it is not. Any suggestion where I might find the lost folder or how to restore it.

 

onedrive duplicating my folders...

Hi.

Again, onedrive is going crazy and is duplicating my main folder, full of subfolders. It's locking me out of all my files. I have windows 10, Office 365 home. I paused synch at the moment before I have 1000 copy of my folder, which I can't open anyway!
Please don't ask me any question that will further delay the repair. Simply give me a step by step solution and then improve onedrive so this won't happen again to so many of us. I suggest you also add "onedrive" in the list of "Windows Topics" below since
thousands of users have issues with it.

Thanks

Michel
