Hello,

One of our users is having issues accessing their "My Files" folder on OneDrive web. I can't insert images but the error is as follows:

"Sorry, something went wrong

Unknown render failure.

Failed to execute statement, ResultCode: 1"

They removed cache and it temporarily fixed the issue but the problem is back. After trying to delete cache again, it doesn't work.

    Dear MarkB_03,

    Thank you for reaching out.

    To better understand the issue, could you please provide the following information?

    1. Browser Test: To check if the issue is related to the web browser, please ask the user to switch to a different browser and see if the problem persists.
    2. To test if the issue is related to the Office 365 tenant, : To determine if this is a OneDrive backend issue, try logging into the user's account on a different computer and check if the same issue occurs.

    This will help us identify whether the problem is browser-related or a broader OneDrive issue. Please share the results, and we will assist you further.

    Best regards,

    Hello. I have had the same issue in recent days. I tried using the Chrome browser on a Chromebook, tried incognito, tried clearing browser history but none worked. I then switched to a Dell laptop and tried both Chrome and Edge browser. The error message occurs no matter the device or browser.
