  1. OneDrive stops syncing how to force sync a folder???


    Hi,I'm trying to sync some heavy photos folders that I imported from google photos *and had to make a python script to correct their dates because windows thought they were all from 01/01/1980.Ok, now OneDrive starts to sync the corrected-date files.... and after about 100 or so files... it stops. It just STOPS.Each folder has about 2 to 3 thousand files. AND ONDRIVE JUST PERMANENTLY STOPS THE SYNC PROCESS AFTER 50 TO 100 FILES.What I'm doing to keep the syncing process going is to pause the sync, and then reactivate the sync so it sometimes get back to work and loads some more files, and s

    OneDrive stops syncing how to force sync a folder???

    OneDrive syncing and I can't stop it

    Hi Brink - I recently renewed my Office Home 365 Personal. Previously, OneDrive worked perfectly but now it's a nightmare. It's syncing and I can't stop it - it kept at it for a week earlier & the OneDrive Support Team said it was stuck and told me how to restart it. It's working on 5,000 - odd files but my SuperAntiSpyware checks 13,000-odd.

    I've tried everything to stop the blasted thing, including unlinking my PC but all that did was to stop me from opening important folders on my desktop. I thought I'd found the solution myself - I went to Settings>Accounts (which includes sync) then "sync your settings" (it's at the bottom of the list on my PC), then 'turn off sync settings'. It wasn't the solution.
    I know you don't usually like to look at MS Community threads where we've already gone to but if you can, you'll see what's happened. This is just one of probably six or seven on the subject of OneDrivehttps://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/msoffice/forum/all/have-i-solved-my-onedrive-problems-win-10/6113d0cd-f670-406e-b9aa-0630d90ce6c9
