Windows 11
The OneDrive web page doesn't show any of my files.
The pop up window from the OneDrive task bar icon shows OneDrive isn't connected and the signing in circle is spinning.
Somewhere, I don't remember where, I saw a message saying the server was busy.

Help!

I can confirm that. Also can't access files from the OneDrive web site. Something must be happening on their end.

I thought it was a problem on my end. I've been repeatedly uninstalling and reinstalling OneDrive on my two desktops.

I keep all my data and photos in OneDrive and I've been working most of the day and evening. I've not experienced any problems accessing my OneDrive data from Atlanta, GA, USA.

This is one of the reasons that I turn "Files On Demand" OFF and mirror all my data locally in real-time. My local drive is 1 Terabyte and my cloud OneDrive is 1 Terabyte. If there were ever a problem accessing OneDrive servers, I probably wouldn't know it.

On my main system, I always keep all the OneDrive files on the device, I copy the entire contents of the OneDrive folder to two separate external drives and use FreeFileSync to backup and sync hose files at least twice a week. On my 2 laptop, I use Files on Demand to access the files when needed and free up space when no longer needed. I was working on one of my laptops when OneDrive servers went down, but things seem to be working fine now.

I only noticed it because I uploaded a new document on my desktop so I could access it on my other desktop. It was a copy and paste from an email and I didn't feel like using sneaker net.
