OneDrive shared folders showing up as URL links and not actual folders

Hi,

When will this problem be fixed? It has been unresolved for nearly two months now.

Issue

Some OneDrive shared folders shortcuts located in your My Files folder may show up as .url internet shortcuts instead of actual folders.

If I try to open the folder shortcut, it opens as a webpage instead of a folder.

Best Regards ,

Blanchi Dabre

    It is working again.

    Thanks

    How is it possible that they fix a competing platform before their own. On the Mac it works, on the iPads there is a tab for shared and is direct access not a link.

    On our Windows 11 it still does not work. I will delete and reinstall to see if that solves it.

    I have spent way too much time on this.
