2. Reset OneDrive

When you reset an application in Windows, it removes all of the information and settings for that app. The reset process can be used to fix a misbehaving application or to return it to its default state.

3. Reinstall OneDrive

Also, when uninstalling, ensure youremove any software leftovers. There may be corrupt files present that could interfere with a fresh install of the application and cause the same issues.

It is also possible that the issue is application-based, so we recommend trying a web browser. For faster signing in, you need a user-friendly and modern browser with interactive features such asOpera.

If you’re still experiencing problems signing in, it’s possible that your account has been disabled or something else is wrong. In this case, it is best to get in touch withMicrosoft supportand report the issue.
