    Hi! Yes, there's a per-day limit which for some reason isn't publicized.

    Go to: C:\Users<username>\AppData\Local\Microsoft\OneDrive\settings\Personal\ClientPolicy.ini and change MaxClientMBTransferredPerDay from 537600 to something higher, such as 1537600.

    Hi,

    I had the same problem. I just selected "pause syncing" and then started syncing again. It solved the problem.

    Best,

    This fixed it for me too. Note, stop the onedrive app first and the save the ini and verify it saved.

    Apon restarting the issue was fixed.

    and then i tried the following steps

    unlink the account

    reset per the instructions from Jason

    %localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\onedrive.exe /reset

    then log in again and it started working again.  on my pc at least it looks like multiple steps are needed to restart.
