Microsoft 365 and Office | OneDrive | For home | Windows
A Microsoft file hosting and synchronization service.
For me, through the website yes; but not through the desktop onedrive file manager.

The search function in the top left doesn't return any results. It used to return results if the given search term appeared in either a file name or the body of a file.

2022-01-06T03:39:59+00:00 Is there anyone out there thats found a suitable alternative? By suitable I mean one where the search function works as it should. If there is, I'll gladly ditch Onedrive.

2022-01-03T20:27:34+00:00 I will just add: Me too. I have stored tons of ISO images on OneDrive and when I search for *.iso, .iso, iso nothing gets returned, except of one picture?

2021-11-12T09:08:40+00:00 Anyone affected by the search problem in the iOS app and online, namely in files that others have shared with you: Try it again now. I have been discussing with MS for weeks now. And lo and behold, the search in the iOS app and online works again. Suddenly I can find everything. Finally.
