    Onedrive Doesnt Fully Upload My Files - Need Help


    There are times when I upload files to Onedrive and days later they arent synced indicated by the blue swirly icon next to them in windows explorer. Not all just a few files. How do i make sure all my files are synced and fully uploaded?

    Not sure if you have same problem, but in my case the method described below worked:

    Section below SOLVED. This was caused by a default setting in Onedrive Settings. Unckecked Files on Demand, everything synced and problem went away!


    Further problem with Onedrive is syncing. I have 14 items that will not sync. These all appear to be desktop shortcutes to programs. For example, Open Office, Malwarebytes, Adobe Digital Editions, AOMEI, etc.

    Message says " No access permission for this item" "Ensure you have the right permissions to allow this item to sync" . I am only user and running as Administrator. These links all work and sync on Win7.


    Right (or Left) click Onedrive icon at bottom right. Go to settings-settings - Uncheck the last item "Files on demand". Worked for me.

    Where are you seeing those settings at?? My settings doesnt have that from my screenshot. Are you sure youre looking at the right info?

    I had this problem a while back.
    The fix was simple. I switched to google drive. No more problems.

    The last item on your screenshot Files on Demand should be unchecked. Isn't that what I said :)
