    Hi, I'm John! I will help you with this.

    Just to clarify, are you referring to people you shared your Microsoft account password with, or files/folders you shared from OneDrive or Microsoft 365?

    Any additional info about the issue you can provide will be helpful in diagnosing and resolving the issue.

    For a home Microsoft 365 / OneDrive scenario, there are two main places to see who has access to what has been shared.

    1. To see people sharing a Microsoft 365 Family subscription
      • Go to the subscription sharing dashboard: View sharing.
      • The dashboard shows:
        • Members of the Microsoft family group not yet shared with.
        • Family group members already shared with.
        • Other people already shared with.
      • For each person already shared with, a Stop sharing option is available. Stopping sharing removes their subscription benefits (including extra OneDrive storage and desktop app use).
    2. To see files and folders shared in OneDrive (and with whom)
      • Sign in at onedrive.com.
      • In the left navigation, select Shared.
      • This view shows:
        • Files and folders shared by the account.
        • Files and folders others have shared with the account, including who shared them.
      • To see or change who a specific item is shared with:
        • Select a single file or folder.
        • Select Info in the top-right, then Manage access.
        • The Manage access pane shows who has access and lets access be adjusted for that item.

    These two locations together show who is using the Microsoft 365 Family subscription and who has access to shared OneDrive content.
