Question Onedrive "Free Up Space" Greyed out.

[Balic Blackthorn]

So, for some reason, the "Free Up Space" option for my onedrive is greyed out. Not sure what is causing it, but I want it to go back to the standard "download file if I open it" behavior, and then being able to use Free Up Space to "clean everything out" once in a while. (Reason: I keep all my work files in my OneDrive, but a lot of them are files that I only need to use for a short time, but need to hang onto for later).

I already tried disconnecting/relinking my onedrive account. I also tried using the attrib -p commands shown here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/files-on-demand-windows

Anyone have any idea what is going on? I can select an individual file and use the free up space command there, but that's hardly practical when working with hundreds of files.

Thanks!

is there an error on the sync?

Nope, it's syncing fine as far as I can tell. It just won't let me use the "Free up space" option at the folder level. I used to just be able to right click OneDrive and select "Free up Space", but that is now greyed out.
