If you or anyone redirects drive letters and has the never ending Processing changes message, please write back with details and solution if available.Īfter much checking and no progress, I think using the SUBST command in a One Drive for Business Environment causes problems for the sync engine. It seems like this remapping of one drive letter to another confuses OneDrive Sync Client, and causes the situation where Sync Client gets stuck forever. Now I've discovered that there are some folders I created that are not syncing to the cloud, and must be part of the "Processing 65 Changes".
I thought it was just an annoyance dealing with the icon spinning forever. At first, I didn't think it was creating a problem. With the redirected D: drive in place, my DDE programs work properly, but then OneDrive client hangs up forever. After that, any time you reference drive d:, it is supposed to access c:\, and resolve the rest of the file path from there. When I sync-up to my main system using a machine that only has a Drive C, it can't find any of the DDE links on Drive D, because there is no Drive D on this remote machine. I use DDE extensively with Office, so one spreadsheet can autoupdate other spreadsheet and Word files.
#Onedrive sync client looking for changes windows#
One of my computers has Windows on Drive C and ODFB local copy of Cloud Data on Drive D. I really don't want to have to do that unless as a last resort.ĭo you re-direct one drive letter to a different drive letter, using the Subst or Map command, or via any third party apps. The default solution from the support community is to totally unsync everything, and then reset the client, but this will cause me to have to re-checkmark only the files / folders that I wan't synced to this PC, and have to re-download gigabytes of data in the process. Files are properly being synced up and down even during this issue, it's just that the processing change twirling icon in the system never stops, so I can't tell if my system is idle or busy with OneDrive.ĭoes anyone have any ideas of how I can troubleshoot this issue. Is there any log file that might help me narrow down the cause of this issue. I can't remember all of the 24 files that were downloaded before the issue surfaced, but I un-synced every folder that I think was involved, with no change in the issue symptom. The original system did not develop this issue. My client is stuck "Processing 24 changes." These changes were originally downloaded from the cloud, after being uploaded from another system.
I was able to delete, but it gets re-created within 1 second after OneDrive client restarts. Nevertheless, I tried deleting the hidden system file called .849C9593-D756-4E56-8D6E-42412F2A707B, by following the instructions in the "Known Issue" Workaround. This known issue seems to stop copying one OneDrive folder to another, which is different than my issue. Starting on, one of my client PCs is stuck "Processing Changes".
