69099-capture.jpgHi,

I try to copy and paste from my desktop to white cloud OD and it says I need more space (ie 32.6g) but I have near 1tb worth of space left, considering I'm only trying to move 160g. Please see photo.

I just upgraded. Although I have successfully moved over (dragged) 9gigs worth. Have also just erased that.

I've tried:
logging out then in
Removing and replacing files
I can manually drop smaller files (but have not tried to manually drop every single small file)

Been trying to trouble shoot this for a couple of hours now.

TIA

    Yea it would help if this problem is fixed. I'm not spending money per month on something that doesn't even work half the time. :p. Plus this problem sabotaged my work files that I had been working on for years.

    Total bullshit scam. I have plenty of free space. Just dropping all this horseshit and copying all my files to my 16 terabyte NAS. What a joke of an operation.

    I had this problem where it was still saying I needed to upgrade and showing red cross.

    I followed the help article to Unlink onedrive and Re-link onedrive to computer.

    After unlinking and re;linking my account it is now syncing again and no more red crosses.
