Using Clouddrive on Windows Server Datacenter 2016 - Never Mounts

[chcguy88]

I was able to snag a copy of Windows Server Datacenter 2016 from my EDU account. The problem is when I load up clouddrive on that computer, my drive mounts(shows up in clouddrive software) but never shows as a readable/writable drive. Is there anything I can do to fix this issue. 

Here is my trace for the session. I replaced some of the possible id information with "*****"

Note this same drive and google drive account mounts just fine on a Windows 10 64bit Pro machine.

I needed to go into Disk Management and activate the drive on server 2008.  Perhaps you will have to do the same.

I just mounted the drive again on my other machine. It seems the main difference is the I/O errors on the trace. On the other machine, those do not occur.

Make sure that you're on this version:

I am currently on that version on both machines (Server and Win 10 Pro)

Could you open a ticket here: https://stablebit.com/Contact ?

After doing that, run the StableBit Troubleshooter:

I'm using Windows Server 2016 Datacenter (GUI Version - newest updates) on a dual socket system in combination with CloudDrive (newest version).

The only problem I had, was to connect with the Internet Explorer to the cloud service. Using a 3rd party browser solved this.

But I'm always using ReFS instead of NTFS...

This fixed the issue! Thank you so much for commenting on this thread. The drive was listed as "offline" due to administer policy in disk management. This is default on the installer for datacenter as I didn't change the defaults yet. (This is for an NTFS drive)

Ugh, yeah, that.  

There is a fix for that, actually. From powershell, run: 
 

Set-StorageSetting -NewDiskPolicy OnlineAll

That will make it so all new disks are automatically online
