    It is now September, and still not fixed for Mac users. Shared folders on Finder are appearing as .URL instead of actual finder folders. Is this kind of thing acceptable for MSFT?

    Hello, Ingenieria1 GP

    Thanks for raising your concerns in Microsoft Community.

     

    We are aware of the issue and are working on resolving it. The url files will automatically convert back to folders when the issue is resolved. For now, we recommend accessing shared folders that are in this state on OneDrive.com.

     

    Please refer to this information here:

    Add and sync shared folders to OneDrive for home - Microsoft Support

     

    Best regards,

    Let's go and get this fixed. Its causing additional steps for everyone. We need this feature of OneDrive to function in our Windows File Explorer correctly. Can you give us a timeline?
