Q:

How to Fix OneDrive Crashing Repeatedly on Windows

Hi everyone,

I’ve been experiencing an issue where OneDrive keeps crashing on my Windows PC. It often stops working unexpectedly, which disrupts file syncing and access.

I’ve tried basic troubleshooting like restarting my PC and reinstalling OneDrive, but the problem persists.

Has anyone faced this issue before?
What steps can I take to fix OneDrive from crashing repeatedly on Windows 10/11?

Any guidance or solutions would be greatly appreciated!

First, try fully resetting OneDrive by pressing Win + R, typing %localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\onedrive.exe /reset, and hitting Enter—this clears its cache without affecting your files. If it doesn’t restart automatically after a minute, launch it manually from the Start menu. Also, make sure Windows and OneDrive are fully updated, and check for any pending updates in Settings > Windows Update. Sometimes, disabling any third-party antivirus temporarily helps, as it can interfere with syncing. If crashes continue, unlinking your account from OneDrive and setting it up fresh usually fixes stubborn issues.
