A bunch of photos and files on my computer suddenly won't open, there's an X on the thumbnail. When I click it says I need to resume syncing. How do I do this?

    Hi NetanyaJoy,

    I'm Christine, a Windows user like you. I can see here that you would like to resume the sync settings for your Onedrive to your device. I got your back. :)

    Please click the Onedrive icon at the bottom right part of your screen. And click the Pause icon to resume the syncing.

    I don't have a OneDrive icon to click on in the lower right corner. All of my photos are in pause sync.
