Windows 10: OneDrive Semi Icon Missing Again

This is the second time this has happened.

After the last CU update I reinstalled OneDrive which I had hoped had fixed it and so it was for about four days.

The OneDrive icon is missing from my systray.
The files on demand feature is missing. The files are now local.
The OneDrive icon in the navigation pane in file explorer is broken.
The status icon is only showing for files and not folders.

I have Windows Defender and Malwarebytes as my resident security.

I could just reinstall it but it will say that the installed version is newer and will most likely do this again.

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.
