Teams – multiple sign ins

Monday, October 4th, 2021

The “Settings -> Accounts -> Access work or school” is what needs to be done in most cases

——————

Check your ~/Library/Preferences folder. Your saved account information is stored in one of those .plists. If you look through all plists starting with “com.microsoft”, one of them should contain the information you want to delete.

In particular, I got rid of “com.microsoft.office.plist”.


delete the $HOME/Library/Application Support/Microsoft/Teams folder and restart Teams. Worked for me.

OneDrive reinstall

Sunday, October 3rd, 2021

Stop and start OneDrive in batch file or command line

  • Select Start (Windows icon) or the Search icon
  • Type “OneDrive”
  • Right-click OneDrive and select Open file location
    — This brings you to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
  • Right-click on the OneDrive.exe file and select Open file location
    — This brings you to C:\Program Files\Microsoft OneDrive
    — This is where the OneDrive.exe file is

Create a batch file with this

cd "C:\Program Files\Microsoft OneDrive" && OneDrive.exe /shutdown && timeout /t 15 && OneDrive.exe && exit

Edit the part “C:\Program Files\Microsoft OneDrive” to where the OneDrive.exe file is for you, if it’s not in this location.

Reset OneDrive

Reset will not remove all settings but will completely resync

C:\Program Files\Microsoft OneDrive\onedrive.exe /reset

Edit the part “C:\Program Files\Microsoft OneDrive” to where the OneDrive.exe file is for you, if it’s not in this location.

==========================

Completely uninstall, remove files and reinstall OneDrive

First a note on a difficult problem

onedrive wasn’t syncing the office documents.

I repeatedly tried resetting OneDrive. Kept getting a message that it couldn’t sync because it was already syncing.

after 2 hours I found a web site describing the solution.

Somehow a link to the onedrive a-SS was within Sonia’s personal onedrive folder.

Once I removed that (it had a chain icon attached) I got her back going.

=============================

Now to remove/reinstall

Slightly edited for Windows 11

CMD prompt as administrator

Run the following commands from an elevated privilege.

netsh int ip reset
netsh winsock reset
ipconfig /release
ipconfig /renew
ipconfig /flushdns
shutdown /r

<If you are remotely connected be sure there is a blank return line included in your copy/paste, otherwise the shutdown /r command can't be completed>

After restart again with cmd as administrator:

taskkill /f /im OneDrive.exe

find the location of OneDriveSetup.exe
(it changes stupidly with each update, I used FileLocator Lite to find it but also look at the top of this post for another way to find the location)

OneDriveSetup.exe /uninstall

Delete OneDrive folder cache

OneDrive cache location: C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\OneDrive

Delete the temporary files in the following folders:

  1. C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Temp
  2. C:\Users\%username%\AppData\LocalLow\Temp
  3. C:\Windows\Temp

Note: It’s OK if some files you can’t delete in the Temp folder.

If you want to remove the login information do the following:

  Go to RegEdit on this path:                     HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\OneDrive
   You can remove all folders that include One Drive version
   Account folders also can be removed

Reboot your computer

Download and install OneDrive https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/onedrive/download
