A OneDrive folder has been shared with me, but in windows File Explorer, it appears as a link rather than a folder when I add it as a shortcut to OneDrive "My Files". How can I fix this so the shortcut appears as a folder instead of a link?

Your help will be greatly appreciated.

    I have wasted hours trying to resolve this myself. unlinking accounts. unsharing and re-sharing. it is incredible that this has been going on for so long.

    Microsoft recently increased all rates too - what for? a worse service...?

    The answer is in the response to this issue on this site, which does belong to Microsoft. We are being completely ignored.

    Do customers even matter to Microsoft anymore?
