In that case, what do you want to do? Save a Copy | Overwrite the changes". Repro Steps: - Sync a OneDrive library with the local OneDrive client - Open any Excel file in Excel 2016 - Make any change and save (file saves successfully) - Make another change to the same file and save Workaround: - Right click OneDrive in system tray - Select Settings - Click the Office tab - Uncheck “Use Office 2016 to sync files that I open” Note: If you turn off the Use Office 2016 to sync files that I have open setting, any changes that you and other people make to Office files will no longer merge together automatically. You will also no longer be able to share a document directly from the Office apps. *Microsoft's Product Team is currently scheduled to have a fix by the end of October 2017. ]]> https://docs.microsoft.com/archive/blogs/odfb/group-sites-not-visible-in-onedrive-for-business Wed, 10 May 2017 13:42:51 GMT https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/odfb/?p=606 Issue: Groups and sites listed in Outlook are different than what appears in OneDrive for Business (new/modern experience). In Outlook all the Office 365 groups are shown that the user is a member of, however, in OneDrive for Business modern view it will only show a few. * If you switch to the classic OneDrive experience then all the Office 365 groups are shown. Resolution: To have the group sites appear in the OneDrive list, navigate to the mail icon and select a link under Groups to go to the group site. Once there, select More and choose Site: Then click on the Star “Not following” (highlighted below): This will add the group to the sites that appear in the OneDrive modern view. *This behavior is by design for the Modern experience in OneDrive for Business.
