Onedrive sync icons
Mathias (Author):
Ahh okey It enabled it for the overlay icons. Cool.
Problem is that the whole icon overlay thing is very bad and if you got a lot of program that shows overlay icons, some may not show. Windows are only able to show 15 different icons. And it will show the first 15 that are configured in the register.
So if you got OneDrive, DropBox, And other extension that show other icons. Some of them will not show, And it is a very common issue.
So because of that I'm actually look for a way to get the status so MC can have a way to always show it. and not be depend on Windows and the 15 overly icon limit

Sadly, this solution doesn't work for me (is doesn't or don't, my english is bad hehe). Maybe it because I'm using Onedrive university account and my folder name is "Onedrive - XXXXX" (I don't know if that is onedrive for business or not)

Thanks, Mathias, for your response.
For those interested, I found more info on OneDrive sync overlay icons. There are several fix options from Microsoft and PCWorld.
NOTE: Sync icons do not appear as overlays if Files on Demand is enabled.
