I have Microsoft Office 365 and uninstalled the One Drive app by mistake. Can I simply reinstall on its own?

Question

I tried downloading all the Microsoft 365 apps from my online account and One Drive doesn't show up. What to do?

Hi @Ariane Hansen

Yes, you can install OneDrive separately. You can get installation package from: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/onedrive-release-notes-845dcf18-f921-435e-bf28-4e24b95e5fc0

If you still cannot find OneDrive after re-installation, it is recommended to locate to C:\Users\UserName\Appdata\Local\Microsoft\Onedrive\24.XXX.XXX.XXXX and run OneDriveSetup.exe.

(Please note, the "UserName" is your Windows account name. If you cannot find "Appdata" folder, please go to File Explorer > View in Show/hide group > check the box of "Hidden Items". Besides, "24.XXX.XXX.XXXX" is the version number of OneDrive.)

If this application is not found, you may go to folder to run OneDriveSetup.exe: C:\Program Files\Microsoft OneDrive\24.XXX.XXX.XXXX.
