OneDrive problem when server starts; Task scheduler;

Question

I have a problem with OneDrive starting Itself when the server reboots for some unexpected reasons that are more frequent these days (Power goes away for a few seconds for example). It starts but it has some sort of a refreshing icon in the Taskbar until I click on it and then the syncing magically begins. We have set up sync via task scheduler in some specific time. I tried to setup another task which will shutdown onedrive half an hour after sync and another to start the app 10 minutes before the sync task . I thought that by doing this i will avoid original problem which is that i have to be present in order to start onedrive after the server shutdown or restarts unexpectedly. The problem that i have when i kill onedrive is that there is ghost process running for which i had to make independent task. Kill task works as it should but start task wont for some reason(What i also noticed is that ghost process doesn't comeback with start task) :/. If someone has a completely different solution to my original problem i will gladly accept it but i would prefer if there is possible correction to my idea.

Your problem is beyond the scope of the daily support of the forum. Server related is involved. In order to better solve your problem. Here I recommend docs team. Where are more experts solve problems for you.
