I have suddenly lost the sync function to 2 important shared folders (ones shared with other people) My other folders and files (not shared) are fine. How can I fix it? For some reason, the folders have been sent to my recycle bin, but I cannot restore them.

    Somehow this problem went away. I can now sync shared folder. All previous sync disappeared and I need re-select what files to sync. I didn't do anything actively to fix this problem. But I do have auto-update enabled for all O365 apps.

    Good luck.

    For those who can sync shared folders again. What is your OneDrive version?

    Im on this version, and I still cannot sync the shared folders from another account.

    OneDrive version: Build 25.041.0303.0002 (64-bit)

    Fixes if you upgrade Onedrive to the latest version on the sharing computer

    But the OneDrive from where I get the shared folder is only accessed from the web app. So there's no OneDrive installed on any computer for the sharing OneDrive folder. It's an account I own.
