Hi team, Happy holidays,

Yes, I have tried all antivirus options by default is on no restriction list as usual on the past it was set automatically. But also tried to add more options, but still on connecting the desktop app, so is pretty annoing to keep working like this, if not solution will decide to swith to one drive, but want to avoid all that pain
