Starfield - Vortex OneDrive Error (396)

[PhoenixOneAlpha]

Hi, I have been searching the forums, but haven't been able to figure this out.  I put down Starfield over a month ago (hey, a LOT of games came out at once).  Going back to it, I updated Vortex recently.   When I got inside and it gave the option of the new sync feature for Starfield, I *think* I declined, but it was first thing in the morning, so I could be very wrong.

A couple days later, I went to check for mod updates and all hell reigned loose.  I have been in a constant barrage of OneDrive error (396) messages.  Each telling me another Starfield data folder is missing.  

I've looked at a few OneDrive error fixes, and disabled my OneDrive from syncing to MyDocuments but that had no affect.  I obviously shut down, restarted, but this has been over the course of days. 

*Edit* Added a screenshot.  I have uninstalled and reinstalled Vortex but no change.  I cannot get past this error message. I have to quit via Task Manager unless I want to spend hours (and I already have) hitting cancel or ignore.  Vortex will not allow me to switch to another game. It freezes if I try.  Bascially, I cannot use Vortex at this point.

Does anyone have suggestions or know of a fix?  Any help will be greatly appreciated!

I've suddenly started getting this exact same issue in Fallout 4 and would love to understand the solution or at least understand what has caused the problem.

Odd question, do you only get this error on files with the .dds extension or is it all files?  In Fallout 4 I am having a similar problem with my Steam folder, but getting errors on *.txt files, everything actually deploys correctly.

For any error related to OneDrive, the place to start would be your OneDrive settings.

Just to follow up on this, I turned off the OneDrive backup of my personal files, hoping that would fix it.  It did not.  I followed several "OneDrive" fixes I found online, but nothing really matched my issue and nothing worked.

I then decided to nuke the site from orbit and uninstalled Starfield, deleted any remnants of mods, and uninstalled Vortex.  I then reinstalled Starfield and Vortex but unfortunately there was no change at all.  Whenever I start Vortex, it loses it's mind and I'm hit with hundreds of those 396 messages. The only fix I've come up with is to not use Vortex, which is a shame because I really loved using it.  But, I moved over to MO2 and it hasn't had any issues, so there's that I guess.

Have you tried changing the deployment method to moving rather than hard linking? That worked for me in Fallout 4
