I have installed OneDrive, but it does not start.

If you have installed the latest OneDrive version (https://www.microsoft.com/de-de/microsoft-365/onedrive/download) but it does not start, try the following:

  • Open the Windows Start menu and type "gpedit.msc". Then click the "Local Group Policy Editor".
  • Look for the entry "/Computer Configuration/Administrative Templates/Windows Components/OneDrive" and disable the option " prevent the usage of onedrive for file storage". To do this, right-click on the entry and select "edit". After that a new windows occurs. Here you can set the funktion to "Disabled".
  • Now try to start OneDrive manually by double-clicking the shortcut under "%localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\onedrive.exe".

Now OneDrive should start and appear in the Windows task bar at the bottom right.
