DUA: When running getting error unable to rename folder "Unable to rename folder
Description

Error during OneDrive re-configuration: Unable to rename the 'C:\Users\\OneDrive - FolderName' folder. Close all file explorer windows and any applications that can lock the folder
Cause

Unknown cause
Resolution

Resolution planned for a future release, No current ETA.

Solution

Load Edge browser | Go to settings | Select System and Performance | turn off "Startup Boost" and "Continue running background extensions and apps when Microsoft Edge is closed".

When you close Edge browser there shouldn't be any hanging processes keeping file open and the OneDrive process should continue

If the above does not work; Stop the Explorer.exe task, load the task then run DUA. If this fails, there are no other workarounds at this time.

Note: If you receive a restart prompt, restart the device, DUA should start automatically after reboot.
