Windows 10 20H2 build 19042.388 solves a OneDrive issue
Last week, Microsoft acknowledged aOneDriveaccess issue affecting Windows 10 2004 users.
Particularly, the bug preventedOneDriveusers from using the Files-On Demand feature. Similarly, it was impossible for these users to access synced files on Windows 10.
The issue, which Microsoft attributes to legacy file system drivers on older machines or devices with legacy applications, is no more.
We fixed an issue that might prevent you from connecting toOneDriveusing theOneDriveapp. This issue occurs on some older devices or on devices that have older apps, which use legacy file system filter drivers. As a result, this might prevent these devices from downloading new files or opening previously synced or downloaded files.
The latest Windows 10 20H2 in the Beta Channel resolves these other issues:
With Microsoft adopting a new naming convention for its prerelease versions of Windows, we know that 20H2 represents an upcoming release between June and December this year.
In other news, the July 14, 2020Patch Tuesdaysecurity fixesare available for download right now.
