CPU usage is very high with 10.14 Mojave beta
OneDrive app 18.091.0506.0007 with MacOS 10.14 beta 18A326g on MacBook Pro ... I have noticed that the OneDrive app when started on boot pulls significant CPU time as well as associated energy usage (fan runs continuously). This draw continues after OneDrive completes initial sync. If I quite the app and then restart app, CPU and energy usage drops to a couple of percent which is what I observe with macOS 10.3.5 on my iMac.

OneDrive Files On-Demand bug
I've noticed a bug on multiple instances in our environment. Syncing with a SharePoint site, using OneDrive build 18.091.0506.0007 and running on Windows 10 Enterprise b1709 and b1802.
With Files On-Demand enabled, and when navigating to any folder in the site, it automatically downloads the files in that folder even though none were set to 'Always Keep on this Device'. Also, when right clicking these files and clicking 'Free Up Space', it switches back to the cloud (online only) and one second later, re-downloads them.
Tested on a newly imaged machine with no other software on it. Windows Defender isn't…

Stop restoring long deleted files
OneDrive has a horrible habit of restoring long deleted files and I know the cause. I commission one of my clients laptops manually and therefore logon as my account to install software. OneDrive is synchronised on this computer. I then typically don't logon for months but when I do, OneDrive assumes that the files found locally are new and re-synchronises them back even though they were deleted afterwards on another computer. This might not seem like a big problem except today is restored an old script with a similar name which had been deleted. I didn't spot this and ran…

Newly create files in OneDrive folders out of reach when on metered connection
When I am on a metered connection, OneDrive pauses syncing, which is great in principle. One consequence of this, however, is that I can no longer new folders and files created by office applications in OneDrive folder. For example, if I create a new file or folder in Word or Excel, I cannot even find it with the File Explorer! The only way I can access it, for example to attach it to an e-mail, is through the office application concerned and by saving it in another spot, say, the desktop.
This is a very annoying bug that makes OneDrive…1 vote -
OneDrive For Business does not sync files larger than 1 GB
Problem-1 is as follow:
1. OneDrive does not sync files larger than 3 GB
2. OneDrive does not always sync files between 1.5 and 3 GB. 10-20% goes through and 80-90% goes in circle. Circle means it sync the file until the end, and then it start all over again and it sync the same file again and again and again…..
3. OneDrive does not sync always files between 1 and 1.5 GB. 50% goes through and 50% goes in circle. Circle means it sync the file until the end, and then it start all over again and it sync…1 vote -

Annoying bugs in Microsoft products
At the outset I regret to inform that the recent Microsoft products , let it be Windows OS, Office 365 , Skype and many other tools which I use for my daily work is full of BUGS. MS software has pathetic quality now a days. I will have to write a book instead of this post to list the MS bugs which I notice in my day to day work.
The latest one being synchronisation bugs in the much hyped OneDrive. My taskbar status icon tells me that "All files are in sync". However, when I open the sync folder…

Onedrive client: one of the worst pieces of software form microsoft i have ever seen
Th onedrive client is like a formula 1 (server side) with the tyres of a bike.
I have the client costantly crash 5/10 times a day.
Cannot examine log files. Are not in plain text. Why did you choose to use a so unuseful way to log activities ?
The client always crash when i add a lot of files to a synced folder.
i had to upload a subdirectory to onedrive server via webdav because the client could not accomplish this result.
Please restart this crayy software form scratch and build something useful for your users.

Onedrive is making problem with AutoCAD Xref system when the files cannot sync up to cloud
I use Onedrive with my team for "AutoCAD Xref system" and many time Onedrive stuck with sync problem.
it always shows "looking for change" or "processing change".what I can do is only "unlink this PC and relink it again"
After that the files are flooded to every people pc with the suffix like "-pc name" which cause the problem with AutoCAD Xref because we have to check in every single file "which file from which PC" is the most current one that we have to remove suffix "-pc name" and replace it back to our Xref system.
