Upload Failed - everytime I open an Excel file located in OneDrive

Each time I open an Excel file (located in our OneDrive) I get this error that says, "UPLOAD FAILED X Your file wasn't uploaded because your changes can't be merged with changes made by someone else. Save a copy. Discard Changes.

I am the only person who uses these files.

I do not have another copy of the file open.

I do not have other excel files open.

    Hi Samantha,

    Sorry for the confusion, I meant that you may close this featureto fix the error.

    Meanwhile, you may also check if the same workbook is opened in somewhere else at the same time, for example in a browser or in another device. If so, you may try closing the workbook from there and see if the same behavior would appear.

    Please let us know if there is any update.

    Best Regards,

    Nathan
