If you want to confirm if there are any programmatic operations to help you improve efficiency, I suggest you try to post a new thread on the following forum, as it may needs code development. I am afraid, you need to do it manually currently. > I am thinking about running a search against the OneDrive folder for "computername" in the file names and just deleting them all, but was wondering if there was a bit more automated or less laborious way? Besides, the old and new files could be synced to other PC. If there is a syncing conflict, to prevent data loss, generally, OneDrive would save both copies, and appending the computer name for to the duplicate files. I am thinking about running a search against the OneDrive folder for "computername" in the file names and just deleting them all, but was wondering if there was a bit more automated or less laborious Can someone confirm that this is indeed the way OneDrive works in such situations? Can someone confirm that this is indeed the way OneDrive works in such situations? Therefore I hope that what we have now is all the good files synced across all PC's and all old files from this one PC synced to other PC's too but with an appended name. I hope that no actual files have been overwritten in the cloud as anything of same name from this PC was simply uploaded with the appended name instead. However what I really need is a solution on how to easily and effectively remove all duplicated files without deleting anything that is current. I've done a bit of research on this but all I found is some suggestions on refreshing user credentials on Windows Credential Manager:īut if I understand correctly this would only prevent any further file duplications. And of course all these duplicate files have been synced to all other users too. The new file names are "Original_file_name-computername". However it seems to have downloaded everything again, but then it also uploaded all local files back into the cloud with appended file names.

I was hoping that OneDrive will be able to detect which files have or have not been edited by other users during the period whilst this PC was unlinked and will only update the local copy ("sync down" the changes) from the cloud. When it told me that the folder/location with the same name already exists on the local C drive I clicked "Yes" to use the same instead of creating a new one. But I left the local copy of the data on the C drive.Īfter a while we needed this PC to be able to sync again so I've just followed the same steps for adding the shared folder to the PC as I did the very first time: went into the shared folder on the web browser and clicked "Sync" at the top menu of the OneDrive page, got the OneDrive app to pop up prompting for user login, followed the steps, etc. But since our O365 licences doesn't include SharePoint - we have created a shared OneDrive folder under one account then shared it with other users and they all added this to their OneDrive on their PC's.Īt some point one of the PC's didn't need this anymore so I went into OneDrive settings, stopped the sync / unlinked the PC. Basically it's almost like having a SharePoint site and everybody having this added to OneDrive on their PC's. I am talking about a shared folder and multiple users having this location added to OneDrive on their PC's. I am not talking about one user having multiple PC's and using OneDrive to sync their personal files across all their devices. We are using OneDrive For Business to sync files between multiple user computers.
