One week data is missing from excel file stored in onedrive

[mdhaumyu]

Hi,

I am using excel file in onedrive and I am using auto-save option. I am also having a habit of saving (CTRL+S) quite oftenly (every few minutes).

Last week Friday I saved the file in onedrive and today (Monday) when I opened the file from onedrive, one weeks data is missing. I have tried recover data, manage workbook options. When I check the version history, the latest version is showing as one week before's date (by right it must show last Friday's date).

Today, my laptop had installed some Dell updates which was related to Wi-Fi UWD driver. When I restart and opened excel file from onedrive, data was missing.

Any idea how to recover the data for last week.

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Hi Marc,

Try to copy the file on a local drive, open the workbook from the local drive, work and save it then copy the local workbook to onedrive …​

Thanks again.

I know the process of copy to local drive, work on it, save and then copy it to onedrive.

I wanted to know what was the root-cause for the missing data.
