hi william,

based on description, suggest try following steps stop sharing folder:

1. sign office 365 portal.

2. select onedrive>select folder.

3. click exclamation symbol below:

4. click manage access.

5. select users didn’t want access.

6. select stop sharing below:

not feasible stop onedrive share click stop sharing on file explorer, option not set onedrive.

if have followed steps, issue still exists, please check if user can access folder on onedrive business online?

besides, according description "i logged microsoft account 1 drive , selected folder directions on website told me to", need confirm if using onedrive personal.

thanks,

qing
