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.
The fix that usually works is running sfc /scannow and DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth from an admin Command Prompt to repair system files. If it’s happening with specific shortcuts, deleting and recreating them often helps too. Also, sometimes just re-registering Explorer and certain DLLs with regsvr32 can clear it up. Most of the time, it’s a system file/registry hiccup rather than a deep OS problem, so keeping Windows updated and occasionally running these repair commands prevents it.
Quick fixes: first, close all Explorer windows and any apps that might touch the drive. If that doesn’t work, open Task Manager, look for processes like “Windows Explorer” or any backup/antivirus tasks, and end them temporarily. You can also use the “Eject” option from File Explorer’s right-click menu instead of the system tray. As a last resort, use “Safely Remove Hardware” after logging out and back in or shut down the PC—Windows always releases the drive on shutdown, so it’s safe. If this happens often, you might want to disable Quick Removal policy under the drive’s properties and rely on normal removal—Windows will handle caching automatically.
First, boot into Safe Mode (hold the power button to interrupt startup 3 times → choose Advanced options > Troubleshoot > Startup Settings > Safe Mode). Once in, go to Settings > Windows Update > Update history > Uninstall updates and remove the most recent one. If Safe Mode doesn’t load, use a recovery USB (created from another PC) to access Advanced Startup > System Restore or Uninstall Updates. Also check Device Manager for any driver conflicts—especially graphics or storage drivers. After rollback, pause updates for a bit until Microsoft patches the issue.
First, check your SSD manufacturer’s site for the latest firmware (Samsung Magician, Crucial Storage Executive, etc.) and install it manually if available. Then, open Device Manager → Storage Controllers and ensure you’re using the latest NVMe controller driver (sometimes rolling back to the Microsoft Standard NVMe driver fixes it). If that doesn’t help, try disabling “Fast Startup” in Power Options and run sfc /scannow and DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth from an elevated Command Prompt. As a last resort, you can roll back to 23H2 until a compatibility patch lands — Microsoft’s already aware and pushing out hotfixes through Windows Update for affected models.
Yeah, you’re right — the Windows 11 24H2 update has been a bit rocky for some users, especially on systems with older or unsupported drivers. The BSoD and fingerprint sensor issues seem tied to outdated BIOS or Intel/AMD chipset drivers, while the taskbar and clipboard glitches often clear up after a clean reinstall of the update using the Windows 11 Installation Assistant instead of Windows Update. If your system’s running fine now, I’d hold off for a few weeks until Microsoft pushes a cumulative patch that stabilizes things. If you’ve already updated and are facing problems, try running “sfc /scannow” and “DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth”, and make sure your OEM drivers are current — that resolves most post-update quirks. Worst case, you can roll back via Settings > System > Recovery > Go back within 10 days of installing 24H2.
To fix it safely, first boot into Safe Mode (hold Shift while clicking Restart → Troubleshoot → Advanced options → Startup Settings). Then, open Command Prompt and run verifier /reset to disable Driver Verifier. Reboot normally and check Event Viewer or BlueScreenView to see which driver caused the crash. Once identified, update or uninstall that driver from Device Manager or the vendor’s site. If it’s unclear, a clean reinstall of recent drivers (especially GPU or network) usually clears it up.
Hey all,
My OneDrive keeps crashing randomly—sometimes at startup, signing in, or while syncing. I’ve seen error codes like 0x8004def4 and 0x80000003. I’ve tried clearing the Office cache and doing a clean boot, but no luck so far.
Could this be due to incomplete Windows updates, app conflicts, or corrupted OneDrive files? What’s the best way to fix repeated crashes—reset, reinstall, or something else?
Any step-by-step tips would be super helpful!
Thanks!
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!
Hi everyone,
I recently encountered the “No Such Interface Supported” error on my Windows 10/11 system. It appeared when I tried to open certain applications or files. After some troubleshooting, I was able to fix the issue.
I’m sharing this here in case others run into the same problem — or if anyone has additional insights on why this error occurs and the best ways to prevent it in the future.
Has anyone else faced this issue?
What were your causes or fixes that worked for you?
Whenever I try to safely remove my USB drive or external hard disk, I get the error message:
“Windows can’t stop your Generic Volume Device because a program is still using it.”
I’ve made sure to close all files and programs that might be using the drive, but the message still appears.
Has anyone experienced this issue before? What steps can I take to safely remove the device without risking data loss?
Hi everyone,
After installing the latest Windows 11 update, my PC started crashing with a blue screen and keeps getting stuck in a boot loop. I’ve tried restarting several times, but it still won’t load properly.
Has anyone else faced this issue? What steps can I take to fix the blue screen and stop the boot-loop caused by the Windows 11 update?
Any help or troubleshooting tips would be appreciated!
Hi everyone,
After installing the latest Windows 11 24H2 update, my system started showing Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) errors. It seems to happen mostly during startup or heavy disk activity. I suspect it might be related to my SSD, since others online mentioned similar issues with specific models.
Has anyone else encountered this problem after updating to 24H2?
If so, have you found any workarounds or fixes (like driver updates, firmware patches, or rollback options)?
Any insights would be appreciated!
Hi everyone,
I recently came across multiple reports about the Windows 11 24H2 update causing serious issues for many users — including Blue Screen of Death (BSoD) errors, system slowdowns, fingerprint sensor failures, and network connectivity problems. Some people also mentioned glitches like disappearing taskbars, broken clipboard history, and undeletable cache files after the update.
Microsoft has reportedly paused the rollout for certain devices, but I’m wondering:
Has anyone here personally experienced these issues after updating to Windows 11 24H2?
Were you able to find any workarounds or fixes?
Is it safer to hold off on this update for now, or has anyone found it stable on their system?
Would love to hear your experiences and any advice on how to handle or revert this update safely.
Thanks!
Hey! Those OneDrive crashes and errors usually point to either corrupted OneDrive files or some conflicts with other apps/services. First, make sure Windows 11 is fully updated—sometimes pending updates break OneDrive. Then try a OneDrive reset: press Win + R, type %localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\onedrive.exe /reset, and hit Enter. If the OneDrive icon doesn’t reappear after a few minutes, run %localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\onedrive.exe manually. If that doesn’t help, uninstall and reinstall OneDrive—it’s quick and often clears lingering corruption. Also, check your antivirus or other cloud apps—they can block syncing. Finally, ensure your account isn’t stuck in a bad sign-in state by signing out completely and signing back in. That usually fixes random crashes without touching your files.
