Windows 10: Windows 11 OneDrive Issue after 20 Team syncs?

Hi,We've been having an issue with Windows 11 & syncing Teams folders with OneDrive. We're finding that after 20 Teams have been sync'd the "Always keep on this device", "Free up Space" and "Share" are missing when right clicking on a folder in the main window. This phenomena occurs when the 21st team folder is synchronised. Once a folder sync is removed placing back to 20 syncs or below, the context menu options return.Seems a bit odd that Win 10 is fine, and we're having to roll back to Win 10 due to this bug.Is this a known limitation, a bug, or something else going on?ThanksPaul

OneDrive Sync Issue

Honestly, I don't understand why you haven't already tried to boot with WinPE or other live disk and manually remove the file? This example using Macrium WinPE boot disk, download Macrium Free and let it create a boot disk for you. Option to create one is shown automatically when you launch Macrium first time:

1. Switch to C: drive
   
2. Change the working folder to your OneDrive folder
   
3. Check that the file has no Read Only (r) and System (s) attributes set. As the file name in your case is quite long, you don't have to type the full name. Use the *.* wildcard to replace any number of characters in file name and any extension, in your case command attrib .849C*.* should be enough
   
4. If r and / or s attributes are shown for the file, remove them with command attrib .849C*.* -r -s
   
5. Check that attributes r & s are removed
   
6. Delete the file with del .849C*.*

(Steps 3 & 5 not necessary; step 3 because removing attributes as in step 4 removes them if set but does no harm if not set, and step 5 because the attrib command works for 100% sure if no error messages are given.)

The file should be removed now. You can test with command dir .849C*.*, it should not be shown anymore.

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.
