OneDrive Expert Needed – Deduplicate Folders & Restore Clean Cloud ↔ Local Sync (Screenshare Only)

Short Project Description

I need a senior OneDrive / Windows sync expert to clean up duplicated and legacy folders caused by multiple failed OneDrive resets. A new master OneDrive folder is already fully cloud-synced, but older folders still exist locally and may overlap.

This must be done safely via screenshare, with zero data loss.

Screening Question (Mandatory)

In your own words:

How do you identify the true source-of-truth when multiple OneDrive folders exist?

How do you safely validate files before deleting duplicates?

What are the most common causes of OneDrive creating duplicate folder trees?

(Applicants who give vague answers or generic steps will be ignored.)

Acceptance Checklist (Non-Negotiable)

The project is complete only if all points below are met:

One single master folder exists and is confirmed identical on:

OneDrive cloud

Local PC

All duplicate, legacy, or orphaned folders are:

Identified

Verified

Safely removed (local and/or cloud)

OneDrive status shows:

No sync errors

No stuck indexing

No phantom folders

Stable two-way sync

Final confirmation walkthrough completed on screenshare.

Rules of Engagement
