How to unlink pbix file to onedrive

[Anonymous]

I am having issues with oneDrive and my pbix file.

For some reason, my pbix file got synchronized with OneDrive. I don't really know how and I can't even find the path to where the pbix is supposed to be synchronized in OneDrive. My problem now is that I cannot upload any file because it tells me it is synchronizing with OneDrive.

Is there a way to break the link/connection?

PS: Sorry if this posted twice.

Still not solved - I raised a ticket with Microsoft...

Hi @Anonymous ,

I am not sure that this is a Power BI issue as much as it is a OneDrive issue.  I had something similar to this last year.  The first thing to do would be to stop OneDrive from running.  In OneDrive on your computer select the Help and Settings and then select the Pause Syncing.  Once it stops, then you can use your Power BI file as you desire.

@collinq - I always pause my oneDrive when I upload (working from home, I try to avoid synchronizing twice at the same time) but it doesn't change the problem unfortunately 😞

If that makes a difference, it is synchronizing on a sharepoint...

Hey @Anonymous ,

Hmmmmmm, what about selecting "folders to sync" and turning that one off?  Or, turning off the sync to SharePoint on your computer?
