Re: [Qgis-user] QGIS 3.34 Not Recognize Existing Shapefiles

2024-06-25 Thread Gert-Jan van der Weijden via QGIS-User

Hi Lynn,

I notice the phrase "onedrive" in the data source path.

Could it be that the sync-options of your OneDrive don't really sync the 
data, but just do a sync on-demand?
(in which case the shapefile-file (.shp, .shx etc) are just a 
placeholder for the real files, that are somewhere up in the OneDrive-cloud.


In Windows explorer, you can tell this by an icon behind the filename:
- blue cloud icon: not locally available, just in the cloud
- green checkmark: available on your device ('offline")


Kind regards,

Gert-Jan

Can anyone advise me what to do next?


Thank you.

If you open a new project (starting fresh) and navigate to the 
AppleValley.shp - can you add it?
