Windows 10: OneDrive never did its job on my new SurfaceGo

Good morning all,

OneDrive never functioned properly on my new Surface Go, I have the following issues.

A) After freshly installing the Onedrive app from the MSStore all seems ok, although I have no idea where the local onedrive is located. All files and folders show up, but new files added by phone or notebook never show up.

B) When I take a photo with my Surface Go this photo shows up in a different (at least I think it is a different one) Onedrive at C: USERS MYNAME ONEDRIVE CAMERAROLL

C) None of the files or folders mentioned at A show up in the Onedrive mentioned at B.

D) All seems to work ok on my Win10 Notebook and my Android Phone, they all sync with each other and with the online Onedrive.

All help is appreciated because it would be a pitty when I have to downgrade to an Android or Apple tablet.

Thanks in advance !

GL

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.

 

SurfaceGo - No Onscreen Keyboard


Is the SurfaceGo new, or new to you? If not has it worked correctly before? If so, what has been done to it recently?
If it has a USB port you can connect a USB keyboard to it until you get this resolved, or to help you resolve it.

 

OneDrive folder icon changed to plain

Hi,

Thank you for replying.

I understand your concern and suggest you to Unlink OneDrive and run OneDrive setup
again and check. Here is the steps:

• 
  Right-click the white OneDrive cloud icon in the notification area, at the far right of the taskbar.
  
  
  
  (You might need to click the Show hidden icons arrow next to the notification area to see the
  OneDrive icon.)
  
• 
  Click Settings, and then click Unlink.
  
• 
  Follow the steps in the Welcome to OneDrive wizard to set up OneDrive.
  

Do notify us if the issue still persists and we'll be glad to help.
