If the OneDrive status is "Offline," then the problem is with OneDrive. If the OneDrive status is "Error," then the problem is with OneDrive. If the OneDrive status is "Unknown," then the problem is with OneDrive or with the computer. Try troubleshooting the problem.

1. Open the OneDrive app.
2. On the main menu, click Settings.
3. Under App updates, click Check for updates.
4. If there's an update available, the app will check for and install it.
5. If there's an update available, the app will tell you how to install it.
6. If there's an update available, the app will tell you how to download and install it.
