OneDrive Says I need more storage when I clearly have enough
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

I suggest you refer to Yuki Sun's first reply on the similar thread "OneDrive says not enough space, ··· ".
Please create a separate new folder, then upload your files to OneDrive online instead of copying and pasting files to the local new folder for a test.Any updates, please let me know.
