Description
OneDrive desktop sync users now get clearer, more actionable guidance when file paths exceed the supported 520-character limit. The updated experience shows exactly how many characters a path is over the limit and offers a guided flow to rename or move the affected items so they can sync.
Change history
Added to the roadmap 4 March 2026. Tracked here since 1 September 2026. Earliest target we recorded: September 2026 (since tracked — Microsoft may have moved it before we started watching).
