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.

    It's a nice tweak but it only works when you are online unlike how it was before where you could work offline locally, and the files would sync whenever the pc was online.

    Same issue here. Come on Microsoft you have paying customers out here who for some reason still use this system!!!! We have had this issue for over a month now and there is not a word from Microsoft about this issue. UNBELIEVABLE!!!!

    Similar problem here. 7 computers sharing files across 5 OneDrive accounts in a single family subscription. First went wacky on wife's PCs, now others. Adds random empty folders, links that go nowhere, etc.
