OneDrive Says I need more storage when I clearly have enough

Question

Hi,

I try to copy and paste from my desktop to white cloud OD and it says I need more space (ie 32.6g) but I have near 1tb worth of space left, considering I'm only trying to move 160g. Please see photo.

I just upgraded. Although I have successfully moved over (dragged) 9gigs worth. Have also just erased that.

I've tried:
logging out then in
Removing and replacing files
I can manually drop smaller files (but have not tried to manually drop every single small file)

Been trying to trouble shoot this for a couple of hours now.

TIA

Answer 1

I had this problem where it was still saying I needed to upgrade and showing red cross.

I followed the help article to Unlink onedrive and Re-link onedrive to computer.

After unlinking and re;linking my account it is now syncing again and no more red crosses.

Answer 2

I had the same problem as well.

The problem is that there is no enough space in your C drive to sync the file you want to save.

Solution is to log on the web portal OneDrive and upload the file.

Answer 3

Total bullshit scam. I have plenty of free space. Just dropping all this horseshit and copying all my files to my 16 terabyte NAS. What a joke of an operation.

Answer 4

Same Issue. Obviously MS only wants your money because they have no one monitoring their own forums to assist.

Answer 5

Yea it would help if this problem is fixed. I'm not spending money per month on something that doesn't even work half the time. :p. Plus this problem sabotaged my work files that I had been working on for years.
