Hello,
i have a bug on IDE 1.8.0 and 1.8.5
I use the newest Windows 10 Version with all updates. (Build Number [10.0.16299.125])
I copy the Sketchbook folder (includes the library folder) into the onedrive folder and set the onedrive option: "all data are local available" (Onedrive_settings.png)
Then i change the sketchbookfolder under preferences.
Now i restart the arduino ide and open an example from a librarie. -> all looks good.
When i try to compile, the IDE cannot find the *.ino files.
When i open the path (with cannot be find from the IDE) on a cmd console the path and the file are existing.
Can someone reproduce the problem ?
Best regards,
Jomelo

Here's the bug report, with information on the upcoming fix:
opened 03:11PM - 16 Nov 17 UTC
closed 09:12AM - 28 Aug 18 UTC
type: imperfection
os: windows
topic: code
It seems recent Windows 10 versions combined with OneDrive suffer from arduino-b… uilder not being able to read files. This is reported as arduino/Arduino#6867 and arduino/Arduino#6932. The symptoms are similar as #90, but I think the underlying issue is similar but different, so I'm opening a new issue.
arduino/Arduino#6932 contains the error output:
```

```
The reporter has tested a number of versions, and has found that 1.6.5 works, but 1.6.6 breaks things, on this particular system. The latter version is the one introducing arduino-builder.
One difference here, is that the .ino file seems to be a link (or some other special file), not the directory.
@phil85521 @ngmacha, could either of you get some more info on the .ino file that is failing? E.g. look at its properties or use some other Windows tool to figure out what kind of file it is, whether it is indeed a junction or some other kind of special file? I don't have any specific ideas what to do, not being a Windows-user.
Looking at the go code previously patched (https://github.com/golang/go/commit/571738569e9b6bb30ebceaf2eb5936f6ee254e34#diff-495e6a9c70ec790e4be07ee30c55141f) it seems that this file might be (or have?) some kind of "reparse point" that is not a symlink or junction (which are the supported types). This [post](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/47264992/one-drive-as-reparse-point) suggests that OneDrive uses the "Cloud" reparse tag (`IO_REPARSE_TAG_CLOUD_7`), which golang does not seem to explicitly support (in its [master branch](https://github.com/golang/go/blob/master/src/syscall/syscall_windows.go#L1022-L1055)).
I suspect this is something to fix at the golang end, it seems there is already a related issue open at https://github.com/golang/go/issues/22579 (which I'll provide with some extra info next).
Here's the workaround:
