Hi, I have the same problem... the solution didn't work... neither any of the other solutions proposed by other users (I tried them all)
It's december 02 after a mega update from windows 10... a had no problem before but do now... I'm in the last couple of months of my PhD trying to write my dissertation... need my Word...
Please, Please, answer with a viable solution other then "forget the existance of onedrive or the back up you are paying for and go old fashion"
Thanks for trying, but this didn't help me either.
But I don't use OneDrive. This is losing me money. Please tell me where I can send my invoice for lost revenue. Thank you.
It works but please microsoft repair it officially somehow.
