OneDrive license not working...

Prompted with " You can't edit your files because your license to use OneDrive ended over a month ago. Ask your IT team to assign a license by March 19th, 2025 to avoid losing access." My IT department issued a license and it still will not allow me to edit the files and still gives me the same prompt. It is a business Office 365 account. Any help would be appreciated!

    Hello,

    we are now facing the same issue with some users where the users have E5 and they are not new. They are in tenant for 3 or more years and the error message started to show up lately for them. Last week it was without an issue.

    Kind regards,

    Mikolas
