Hi!

I'm not using OneDrive or other cloud services in this regard.
Just mirroring a windows profile from external HDD to laptop internal backup location (so no active profile or windows special protected folders).
10:58:54 Fehler Die Datei
"F:\Users\maria\OneDrive\Erste Schritte mit OneDrive.pdf" kann nicht nach
"D:\maria\OneDrive\Erste Schritte mit OneDrive~9be0.ffs_tmp" kopiert werden.
ERROR_CLOUD_FILE_PROVIDER_NOT_RUNNING: Der Clouddateianbieter wird nicht ausgeführt. [CopyFileEx]
Just reporting. It doesn't bother me, I don't need that file at all. Maybe a problem with files containing "OneDrive" or something.

Win10 21H2 x64
FFS 11.18, free version, german localization

Have a nice day,

ok I tried copying it directly ctrl+c & ctrl+v

Same error (0x8007016A), so it's a Windows problem!

Nevermind.

At some point you were using OneDrive cloud storage. You may not be using it now, but those files with those errors are listed in your storage, but they haven't yet been downloaded by OneDrive to save space. It's a feature called "Files on demand". Since OneDrive isn't running, it can't download those files to then transfer them. Either log into OneDrive and get those files or just delete the files that pop up with those errors.

Thank you for your answer.

Well I've never been using OneDrive on the PC where the copying happens. Immediately disabled / uninstalled by W10privacy. Don't have a Microsoft account either.

So it's purely from the Windows profile folder to be copied. Amazing.

Or maybe self-activated by some update, who knows.
