OneDrive Sync Status icons

[gilius]

Next problem to solve... OneDrive is working but there are no sync status icons, such as a green tick or cloud.

Which component could have removed that?

It's something under Windows Apps section that is allowing File Explorer to have the OneDrive status icons. The investigation continues...

Resolved - but auto unattended OOBE seems to remove the OneDrive context menu for some reason.

Thanks for the report about the icons, will check if it's expected (guessing Settings Sync from the screenshot).

Regarding the OOBE and OneDrive:
- do you normally answer yes when asked about OneDrive in the manual setup process?
- does it work after autounattended install if you start using OneDrive and reboot?
- would you like the Enable OneDrive option under Unattended? You have username and password, or is it a Business (autologin) account?

I don't know why the OOBE affects OneDrive context menu because they aren't related, right? There's no OneDrive options in the OOBE. And you know what I mean by OneDrive context menu - I mean the right-click Share menu:

Does anyone know what service name is associated with "Setting Sync"?

 

[gilius]

I found out some scripts will knock out the sync status icons - possibly restored by resetting OneDrive - but main thing is to wait for automatic OneDrive update (cloud icon with a line going through it appearing in the system tray) then login before running any service disabling scripts, etc.

As for OneDrive context menu I found that either UAC is needed or Windows User Interface (TWINUI) - am about to find out which one.

The OOBE Wifi connection screen (et al) I still don't know which component is needed - but it's not necessary. OneDrive is more important IMO.

It's UAC! Seems tied to OneDrive for some reason...

So that's "clear space" and "always keep on this device" sorted - but to "view online" that TWINUI is probably needed in addition to UAC.

So NTLite could potentially add protection option for OneDrive: Setting Sync, UAC and TWINUI (latter needs to be tested to confirm "view online" works).

Thanks gilius, will check and add a new compatibility once confirmed.
