Sometimes, on certain devices, you may encounter a situation where your OneDrive folder is opened, but some of your files seem to be missing. This is a common issue that can occur when OneDrive has been logged out.
To reestablish your connection with OneDrive, follow these steps:
-
Navigate to the notification area and give a single click on the Cloud icon (OneDrive Cloud).
-
In the menu that appears, click on "Settings."
-
This action will either lead you to a Microsoft Login screen or show that your account is not currently logged in, prompting you to click on the login link.
-
After successfully logging in, OneDrive will initiate the synchronization process to ensure that all your files are up to date.
-
If, even after synchronization, your files are still missing, close all windows associated with OneDrive.
-
Reopen the file you were originally looking for, and you should now find it accessible.
As an alternative, you can also access your OneDrive files by visiting https://onedrive.live.com, where you can view the online version of your OneDrive folder.
