Having to manually click on any new OneDrive folder added from another device and mark it as "Always Keep on This Device" is such a joke, this completely kills the synchronization workflow from all your customers that need to access their data offline (basically everyone traveling that uses more than one device with OneDrive).Together with Spotlight you just killed another key function of macOS as now you have to open every single file inside OneDrive if you want to quicklook at it from Finder. QuickLook integration of any file inside OneDrive.Content indexing is paramount for a search service like Spotlight in any platform. Indexing of only names in 2022 is completely useless. Spotlight integration of any file inside OneDrive.You have just decided to completely kill: Nichols and your team decided to basically render it useless in one sweep with the snap of your fingers.

After years of OneDrive having an excellent Mac client, you Mr.

Spotlight will not index our cache folder.

If you are looking for something in Spotlight that could only be read from the full file (such as image EXIF data), only fully hydrated files will be indexed. Spotlight indexes everything that is in your sync root, but note that Spotlight will not fetch (or hydrate) files that are dataless. Will this work with local file indexing (e.g. I am now posting here as you appear to have moved the discussion into this new thread. This is a quote from your previous article posted here by Nichols. Taking away MY RIGHT to use and backup MY DATA on MY DEVICES is egregious and unconscionable, and arrogant beyond Kirti I get it that MS want sticky customers, who doesn't - but this is not the way to do it.!!! Not me, but I can fore-see where this might go. I sincerely hope that's not the case, however if it is then this is moving into Class Action territory and/or Consequential Damages for any prolonged outage or God forbid if data is lost. That said, I've watched closely the replies above from MS Team Kirti Nichols and it seems there is silence on whether 'On Demand' is here to stay, and local or offline files gone. AU sold almost 10yrs ago had well over 4k SMB and Mid customers over 25yrs and it's people like those on this forum and I who are the influencers of many - I've been inundated with queries and so far I'm saying sit tight. I well recall when Apple gave the middle finger to Pro a few years back users its Mac range slipped to single figures, my close friend took direct part in subsequent QA discussions and Apple reversed course.

It seems this is in fact intended behaviour by Microsoft, The only issue - files subsequently copied into the folder are reverted back to 'On Demand'. This fully expands the subfolder tree, and this initially seemed to 'work', in that I got an accurate folder total size. Then in Finder sitting at an unexpanded OneDrive root folder, press Option/Right Arrow. I first did this - 'open a Terminal window and type "ls - alR ~/OneDrive" (or the path to your OneDrive)' and then clicked the Cloud icon of the folder to fix. I've found a slight 'fix' to this 'offline' debacle. I think I have a back up of the lost files, but this needs to be quickly amended or else many other users could lose their all their files. I did this and this action started to deleted my files on OneDrive files my computer and online!! After about a half an hour of deleting I realise and terminated the terminal program. This will ensure all of your files and folders are created, but not downloaded, before you browse. To do this, open a Terminal window and type "ls -alR ~/OneDrive" (or the path to your OneDrive). To avoid this delay, you can force the system to pre-create all of these files and folders for you without downloading your content. The first time you open a OneDrive folder, macOS will create them on-demand. To save space and system resources, the File Provider platform doesn't actually create the files OneDrive is managing until the first time you need them. Why is it sometimes slow to browse folders in my OneDrive? I have just updated One Drive and was very confused by all the changes.
