Wanting to cleanup my OneDrive Documents folder, of older backed up stuff I don't need any more(like uninstalled 3rd party folders placed by some programs), I found I could not delete them

I even tried with OneDrive Online to do it, but, there was no delete option for those specific files & folders there:eek

I had this exact issue too - there was no way to delete from onedrive - drag and drop to recycle bin on PC did nothing, online deletion didn't exist. I guess they blocked it while figuring out the issue as it works fine again (for now).

Hi Superfly , took us almost 4 days , almost everything ok now !
Not going back anymore . All our Eventviewer-notifications dont show up anymore !
Only ONE (!) problem remaining ; changing colour in right-click context menu ( it used to be blue on the mouse-selected items) , its grey and I can not change it ( I know it must be possible ),tried ImmersiveContextMenu=1 in regedit, but it did not work ( it did in 1803)
So, Im asking you again for help , like you did before.
If I can do something in return, let me know.............thanks !

Just catching up with this latest fiasco... seems each MS "roll-out" ends up as "roll-eyes"... not funny for many, I know, but just trying to find some humour in it...

Was this ever a known issue in Insiders builds?...Albeit it only affects a few, it should still have been addressed, surely... losing data is a mission critical bug.

I can't recall any of this kind of stuff prior to Win 10's rolling releases... it's a shame, really, as theoretically it was an excellent idea (vis-a-vis Debian.)

Yes there were reports of it on the Feedback hub as long as 3 months ago.

I noticed a big performance hit with 1809. I think there will be a new build not a Cumulative update as 1809 is so unpolished.

There never was in The Past. This will be fixed by a CU .

This whole thing should make people think about backups and move your user files away from c: if you can.

Looks like ONE problem will be solved the 9th...
Microsoft released the October 2018 Update with a known Task Manager bug; fix coming soon - Neowin
(Anyone else notions the blinking '>' ?)
