OneDrive

Prevention

• When using PoB ensure OneDrive is running, unpaused, and signed-in. This will ensure that the files are readable in all circumstances.
• Additionally, you can make the Path of Building folder and its contents available regardless of OneDrive's status by following these steps:

1. Start/unpause OneDrive and sign in
2. Open your Documents folder in File Explorer
3. Right-click on the Path of Building folder
4. Click on "Always keep on this device". (If this option doesn't appear OneDrive isn't running.)

Note: If you later select "Free up space" on Documents\Path of Building\ or Documents, this setting will be removed.
