One Drive folders changed to Internet Shortcuts - FOR THE SECOND TIME!!!

Anonymous

In June 2024, my shared One Drive folders changed to Internet Shortcuts. Despite trying any suggestions we could find, and hearing nothing but canned responses from MicroSoft, we opted to spend a weekend changing to a new email address / MicroSoft / One Drive account after 6 months of frustration.

Today, that new account once again changed my One Drive folders to Internet shortcuts. Besides going through the entire new email address process again, have I missed any workarounds for this?

    We have the same issue since 2025-03-04 with Office 365 Family paid version on all devices, worked for years, on windows 10 pro and windows 11 pro, works fine still on Android phones. Tried all suggestion and will try option of changing emails for family soon since we use and need this. Amazing that pricing will be going up next month for renewal.
