OneDrive: Shared folders are only available via internet shortcut

Anonymous

I am having problems with shared folders in OneDrive. They are showing up as internet shortcuts only, I used to have them in File Explorer as a folder that I would click on to access content of that shared folder. My IT person found a website stating that Microsoft is aware of this issue. When will this be fixed?

Hi there,

Miracle happened. Finally working, that was a terrible 1 year, for us it was just 3-4 month, but still it is crazy, that it took so long :(

I am happy again.

I can confirm that this issue is now resolved at 6 of the 7 sites that have been affected.

The URL shortcut has been replaced with a folder that once again allows for browsing and accessing files from "Shared" folders within Windows Explorer.
