OneDrive Bug – Sync in endless loop
Hi,
I’ve encountered a strange issue with OneDrive recently.
Our company uses SharePoint as main cloud storage for all kinds of data (images, files, …). We have around 4 TB of data in total.
Users synchronize all folders they need with OneDrive and it works pretty good, even with bigger folders that have up to 1 TB of data.
Now, a strange sync issue appeared out of nowhere:
When starting to sync a folder, OneDrive gets stuck at “[NUMBER] changes are being processed” – this number is ever increasing, it even went up to 2 MILLION changes even if the folder that was selected only had a handfull of files in it.
This is what it looks like:
What I’ve tried to fix this:
Reset OneDriveLog out of OneDriveReinstall OneDriveStop sync for all foldersDeactivate OneDrive backup
This issue happend on multiple devices (Windows 10 and 11), for different users, different folders and storage locations on SharePoint.
Has anyone noticed similar issues recently? I couldn’t find anything online. MS Support told me to just wipe the device and reinstall Windows.
What do you think? I’d really appreciate any help, comments or ideas!
