OneDrive not working or syncing - Solution

Sometimes a Windows Update can cause issues with OneDrive. It could be as small as not syncing automatically, to as something more serious as the whole OneDrive app is nowhere to be found, and looks as if it's been deleted from your computer.

This is a very simple solution which is to reinstall the OneDrive sofware directly from the Microsoft Office website.

  1. On your web browser, navigate to the official Microsoft Office website for OneDrive: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/new-onedrive-sync-client-release-notes-845dcf18-f921-435e-bf28-4e24b95e5fc0
  2. Scroll down until you see the Downloads section, and click on the Install the latest fully released Windows version (or Mac version if you are on a Mac).
  3. After the download finishes, click on the Installer file and just wait a few moments until OneDrive is installed again. 
That's all you need to do. It should be fully functional again.
