OneDrive says “OneDrive isn’t connected” and offers to Sign In. Attempting to do so results in an unhelpful screen that says “There was a problem signing you in” without any explanation.

The account works perfectly well if used online from a browser. OneDrive can be accessed with no issues from the browser; it only fails when using the sync app in the local computer.

OneDrive was previously working perfectly well on the same computer. The failure to login is a recent occurrence.

Things I have already tried:

– Unlinking the PC and trying to re-add the account (same error when logging in)

– Uninstalling and reinstalling OneDrive

– Deleting cached account from the credential manager

– Checking for Windows updates

– Running sfc /scannow

The problem started occurring shortly after applying the latest Windows Update, although I am not sure that both things coincided in time.

The computer is running WIndows 10.
