Hi, good day!
The red X indicates that you are using OneDrive or another cloud service, and it failed to sync those files.
Please try to login into OneDrive online
Please check if you see your files there, and is your OneDrive allocation indicated as full in the lower left corner?
I look forward to receiving your update and I'm willing to collaborate with you till we resolve the issue. Do keep me informed.

I have the red x next to a folder, logged into onedrive and it is less than half full and appears that all files are there. Onedrive status says 1 file remaining. How can I get that last file to sync?
Perhaps it's a problem with file permissions. Right-click a file with a red X, select Properties, and then go to the Security tab. Check if any groups or users have a red X. If so, click the Edit button, select the group or user name with the red X, and give it "full control."
