    If the synchronization does not want to continue, it can help to pause the synchronization briefly using the following options:

    1. Close and reopen OneDrive (if necessary, close using the task manager on Windows or the activity display on macOS)
    2. Pause synchronization: To do this, open OneDrive, click on Settings and select an option under “Pause synchronization”. After a short wait, click on “Continue synchronization” under Settings
