Microsoft finally acknowledged an ongoing OneDrive issue impacting Microsoft Windows 10 systems after the company released its latest update this month. Fortunately, the company managed to fix the problem on Wednesday, the day they announced it.
The fix is simple! If you find yourself having issues with syncing OneDrive after upgrading to the latest updates, it might be your device causing the issue. You can fix this by installing the latest client updates for your device or uninstalling OneDrive.
Client platforms like Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10, version 21H2; Windows 10, version 21H1; and Windows 10, version 20H2 are affected by the issue. While no server platforms are mentioned to be affected by the problem, it still impacts OneDrive and OneDrive for Business users on those client platforms. Fortunately, this issue should now stop with the introduction of KB5020953.
“We want customers to have a great experience with our software updates,” Microsoft says in a blog post. “That’s why we’ve created this cumulative update for Windows 10.” Customers don’t need to apply previous updates before installing the new one. You can also manually import these updates into your server from Microsoft Update or Microsoft Endpoint Configuration Manager.
