OneDrive not showing

XYplorer 27.20.0700 (32-bit)
Microsoft Windows 10 Pro 22H2 Build 19045.6466
Screen Scaling at 125%
Microsoft OneDrive for Business shows in Microsoft File Explorer as its own node next to "My PC". In XYplorer it is nowhere to be found. The correct settings are set:
General > Tree and List > Items in Tree and List > Select Items ... > OneDrive Folder
General > Refresh, Icons, History > Icons > Show icon overlays
General > Refresh, Icons, History > Icons > Show icon overlays > In tree as well
General > Refresh, Icons, History > Icons > Show icon overlays > In network locations as well
I'm reading some old user reports that this has been a long-running bug. Enlighten me please.

Is "OneDrive folder" ticked in Configuration | General | Tree and List | Items in Tree and List | Select Items...?

Facepalm.
You have only the OneDrive for Business folder, or also a personal one?

Only an OneDrive for Business account is connected, as shown in Windows File Explorer.

Let's get down to the real path. Do you have a folder called C:\Users\[YourUsername]\OneDrive - [YourCompany]?

Hi Don,
I have the same issue with OneDrive for Business that it does not appear in the tree. And I can confirm that the real path is
C:\Users\[YourUsername]\OneDrive - [YourCompany].
Is it possible to fix it?

It's hard to find reliable information about this.
1) Is your path listed here (directly or via link)?
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\OneDrive\Accounts
2) Can you confirm this AI statement?
The registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\OneDrive\Accounts\Business1 stores configuration settings for a specific OneDrive for Business account, including the user folder path (UserFolder) and display name (DisplayName).

Below HKCU\Software\Microsoft\OneDrive\Accounts there 2 accounts:
- Personal
- Business1
The Account Personal only shows only 2 entries. I think the value for the key "Userfolder" is currently used XYPlorer.
The Account Business1 has far more entries --> yes, the settings for the OneDrive for Business account are stored in this branch
Also Business1 has a key "Userfolder" which contains the already discussed path of OneDrive for Business: C:\Users\[YourUsername]\OneDrive - [YourCompany]

Thanks! The next beta has an experimental tweak to support OneDrive For Business.

The tweak doesn't work for me with XYplorer 28.20.0300 (portable version). After selecting "OneDrive Folder" to be shown in the Tree, an empty icon appears with the program folder of XYplorer as content.

Code: Select all
echo reg_get(1, "Software\Microsoft\OneDrive\Accounts\Business1", "UserFolder");
What is returned?

That's an XYplorer script. Run it through the XYplorer address bar.

The command returns the correct path to OneDrive for Business in the format
C:\Users\[YourUsername]\OneDrive - [YourCompany]
