OneDrive groups is feature where users can create a groups and share files with multiple users in that group. Since people can achieve the same by just sharing public link now, the groups feature was retired but the users who were using groups already were still able to access it.

Microsoft has now sent a mail to the OneDrive group users informing that the OneDrive group feature will be removed completely and existing groups will not be accessible from 16th October 2015. Check out this screenshot of the email that was sent by Microsoft for more information:

 Issue Description: The above mentioned error is displayed when OneDrive users try to save the changes they have made in an Office document through Office/Office 365 installed in their PC. Choosing neither ‘Keep the local copy’ nor the ‘Keep the server copy’ options retains the recent changes made to the document. 

Troubleshooting: If you are facing this issue, press ‘Cntrl+S’ key combination in the office document without choosing the options to keep the local/server copy. This should save the recent changes in the document. If you find that changes were not saved, then visit the OneDrive website, right click on the file and then select 'Version history'. Check for the version with the time stamp around the time you made the changes and try restoring it. This should restore the latest version with the changes you have made.
Issue Description: The OneDrive app on Mac crashes and displays the above mentioned error. Exiting the app and restarting it brings the same error message. 

Troubleshooting: This issue could occur due to various reasons. Most of the users have reported that re-installing the OneDrive app has resolved the issue. Before uninstalling the OneDrive app, right click on the OneDrive icon on the top right and select ‘Preferences’. Click on “About’ and then click on ‘Unlink OneDrive’. This will make sure that no files are deleted or changed when you reinstall the app. To uninstall the OneDrive app, just drag and drop the OneDrive application to ‘Trash’. After uninstalling, make sure that you delete all files related to OneDrive installation as explained here: 

a. Go to /Users/<name>/Library/Containers. 
b. Find the 2 folders - com.microsoft.skydrive-mac and com.microsoft.SkyDriveLauncher. 
c. Drag them to the trash.

Issue Description: OneDrive stops syncing and when users try to access the OneDrive app version, the above mentioned error message is displayed.  

Troubleshooting: This issue could occur if the current user profile data is corrupt or if something is wrong with the connection between your user profile and the Microsoft account to which it is connected. Most of the users have confirmed that disconnecting their Microsoft account and connecting it back has resolved the issue. Users can try the following steps: 

Windows 8.1 

  1. Press Windows key + C, click on ‘Setting’ and then click on ‘Change PC settings’ 
  1. Click on ‘Accounts’ in the left pane and select your user account
