    Hi,

    I'm Ajibola, an Independent Consultant here and a Microsoft user like you. I don't work for Microsoft.

    I'm sorry to hear that you're having trouble with OneDrive. It sounds like you initiated a restoration to a restore point in OneDrive, but it hasn't started yet and it's been more than 10 hours. You're seeing a message that says "Your OneDrive is being restored" and "waiting", and files aren't syncing with your PCs and you can't recover files from the recycle bin.

    According to Microsoft Support, if you're having trouble with OneDrive restoration taking too long, there are a few things you can try¹³:

    • Check your internet connection: Make sure you have a stable internet connection and that your network isn't experiencing any issues.
    • Check your OneDrive storage: Make sure you have enough storage space in your OneDrive account to restore your files.
    • Check your file size: If you're trying to restore large files, it may take longer for the restoration process to complete.
    • Check your file types: Some file types may take longer to restore than others.
    • Check your device: Make sure your device meets the system requirements for OneDrive.
    • Try resetting OneDrive: Press Windows key + R, paste %localappdata%\\Microsoft\\OneDrive\\onedrive.exe /reset into the Run box, and press Enter. This will reset OneDrive and may help resolve the issue.

    If none of these steps works, you may want to contact Microsoft Support for further assistance. They should be able to help you resolve the issue and get your files syncing properly again.
