Hello,

I’ve been seeing reports from other users over the past few weeks about OneDrive randomly pausing, sometimes when launching games or even web browsers. I believe this is an emerging issue on Microsoft's side.

Before an official fix is available,

You can temporarily turn off Windows Game Mode under Settings > Gaming > Game Mode to see if that makes any difference.

If not, another workaround you can try:

Please type cmd in the search on the taskbar. Don't press enter key yet. Instead, choose "run as administrator" to launch Command Prompt.

Run this command:

reg add "HKLM\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\OneDrive" /v GPOSetUpdateRing /t REG_DWORD /d 0 /f

Restart the computer. Go to Settings > Apps > Installed apps, and uninstall OneDrive.

Then download and install this version: 26.189.0928.0009 (amd64). Be careful here; it is not the arm64, but amd64.

And I strongly suggest that you also file a report to make product team aware of this issue. Right click on the OneDrive icon on taskbar > Settings > Send a feedback.
