Ever since I used my personal laptop at work one day I have had problems with OneDrive on my computer. Please see the screen shot of the error message saying that "your organisation doesn't allow you to sync your personal OneDrive on this computer." I am signed into my Microsoft 365 account as myself and I can access my OneDrive from the browser and app, however I prefer to access it from Explorer and this I cannot do. At the moment all of my OneDrive files are sitting on my C drive and I do not have sufficient storage space for this to continue.

Somehow, my laptop thinks it now belongs to the company I work for so I hope that this can be resolved. Thanks, Lesley

    @Lesley Heywood

    You could try to navigate to the following registry path: HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\OneDrive\DisablePersonalSync, then change its value from 1 to 0.
    Note: please back up the registry before modifying.
