How do I open OneDrive log (ODL) files?
I am trying to troubleshoot Microsoft OneDrive, in particular I'd like to know which files it has processed. I found this folder which contains a bunch of ODL files:
C:\Users(user)\AppData\Local\Microsoft\OneDrive\logs\Personal
For instance, one filename is SyncEngine-2016-2-16.255.7212.11.odl
How do I open these ODL files? They appear to be in some binary format.
Solution 1:
Although ODL files are SQL databases, the OneDrive logs are exclusively for MS tracking and not to the general public. To enforce that rule, Microsoft encrypted it using a confidential key. Therefore, it is impossible to open them without knowing the correct key.
