Unable to disable OneDrive file on-demand

Anonymous

I changed my OneDrive local file store location last week.  Then I found I'm unable to uncheck "File On-Demand" option for OneDrive for business account.  When I click that option, a warning message pops-up.  When I click "OK",  there is no change for this setting.   Intetesting thing is, I can change the same setting for my personal OneDrive account, also able to change business OneDrive  settings on another machine.    Wondering if there is a setting to change or I have to reinstall/ reset OneDrive?

Thank you

    Look at a later reply of mine.

    I'm sorry you are going through this like I did.

    I also REALLY wish some people would read how many of us tried everything.

    So the good news is that as I write this, Microsoft, the GOOD version of OneDrive is production now.

    I can't give a number on here because my number won't jive with production.

    Worst case, you might need to uninstall and reinstall. That is per escalated support at Microsoft.

    I'm having this trouble with a work computer where the company controls updates, so I don't have many options.

    Try  downloading the Rolling out version 20.114.0607.0002 

    Reference: https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/office/onedrive-release-notes-845dcf18-f921-435e-bf28-4e24b95e5fc0?ui=en-us&rs=en-gb&ad=gb 

    right clicking "always" kept my files available off line, but the new one drive version allowed me to finally turn off the file on demand...

    Right clicking on the one drive and selecting "always keep on this device" solved the problem...

    That's what I'm saying - that option doesn't exist for me
