OneDrive Personal folder response fault

[flairheadrelief]

About a week ago, my OneDrive Personal 1TB storage began experiencing extreme delays in response when accessing folders in Explorer. These delays range from 1-2 minutes each time, sometimes longer, even when OneDrive sync is paused or not running. Simply clicking on a folder or file within OneDrive triggers this behavior, and each step in opening a OneDrive folder or file suffers similar delays.

For over two years, I never noticed this behavior. No error codes have appeared, and Explorer functions normally on local drives and Apple iCloud storage.

To troubleshoot, I unlinked my OneDrive connection, uninstalled and reinstalled OneDrive, and allowed many hours for synchronization to re-establish, but the issue persists. Synchronization itself appears to proceed normally when it is in process.

I am unsure whether this issue is related to my PC or OneDrive. Has anyone else encountered a similar problem or knows how to fix it, other than reinstalling OneDrive, which has proven ineffectual for me?

This issue is disrupting my access to files in OneDrive storage from Windows 10 Explorer folders. As a paid subscriber to OneDrive services, this situation is unacceptable. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

If OneDrive is unusually slow even after reinstalling and unlinking, you might be experiencing issues related to your OneDrive settings or potential conflicts with other software. Make sure that OneDrive is not being limited by any third-party security software or system policies. Sometimes, adjusting OneDrive's sync settings to "Always keep on this device" for essential folders can improve responsiveness.
