OneDrive remove excluded items

Last week when I posted here, along the way In my attempt trying to figure out how to control an unexpected flood of local downloads, I add some items to the "exclude" list Unexpected OneDrive behavior, backup warnings I see no way to remove items from that list. A search revealed nothing. There's supposed to be a Settings > File Filter option, but I don't see anything like that.

 

Unable to rename/delete folder in OneDrive that has name problems

Hi all,

I recently allowed the Windows update to v1903 and all looked OK, except I know have a c:\users\xxxxx.000 directory (where xxxxx is the user name). Anyway, while trying to ensure everything was OK with OneDrive, somehow I managed to create a directory call
"desktop " - with a space at the end - in the OneDrive folder list.

Now I receive a OneDrive sync error saying that this folder contains characters not allowed. When I try to rename it, I receive a message in explorer saying that the item doesn't exist. Similar message if I try through a command line. Note that the folder
hasn't sync'd so it is on my laptop only.





Suggestions on how to remove the folder? Short of rebuilding the PC!

Thanks!
