# Resolve file upload errors in Microsoft Forms | ||
|
||
Files that are uploaded through Microsoft Forms are stored in Microsoft SharePoint or in OneDrive for work or school, as follows: | ||
|
||
- Files that are uploaded to group forms are stored in the document library on the Microsoft 365 group's SharePoint site. | ||
- Files that are uploaded to individual forms are stored in the form author's personal OneDrive folder. | ||
|
||
When you use the file upload functionality in Forms, you might receive an error message in the following scenarios: | ||
|
||
- You [try to add a file upload question](https://support.microsoft.com/office/add-questions-that-allow-for-file-uploads-6a75a658-c02b-450e-b119-d068f3cba4cf) to a form. | ||
- You try to upload a file in response to a question. | ||
|
||
These errors might occur if file uploads to SharePoint or OneDrive are blocked. This article lists some common error messages and the methods to fix the errors. | ||
|
||
## Error: We weren't able to create an upload file folder in OneDrive for Business | ||
|
||
This error can occur for the following reasons: | ||
|
||
- The **Limited-access user permission lockdown mode** site collection feature is enabled. This feature restricts sharing and access to files and folders. | ||
- The [*People in your organization* sharing links](/microsoft-365/solutions/microsoft-365-limit-sharing?view=o365-worldwide#people-in-your-organization-sharing-links&preserve-view=true) are disabled. | ||
- Sharing files and folders is limited to site owners. | ||
|
||
### Resolution | ||
|
||
To fix this error for an individual form that you create, sign in to your OneDrive for work or school website, and then follow these steps: | ||
|
||
1. Disable the **Limited-access user permission lockdown mode** site collection feature if it's enabled. | ||
|
||
1. Select the **Settings** icon in the upper-right corner of the screen. | ||
1. Select **OneDrive settings** > **More Settings**. | ||
1. Under **Features and storage**, select **Site collection features**. | ||
1. Locate **Limited-access user permission lockdown mode**. If its **Status** value is **Active**, select **Deactivate**, and then select **Deactivate this feature** on the confirmation page. | ||
1. Enable the *People in your organization* sharing links if they're disabled. | ||
|
||
**Note**: You must be a SharePoint Online administrator and a site collection administrator to run the following PowerShell commands in [SharePoint Online Management Shell](/powershell/sharepoint/sharepoint-online/connect-sharepoint-online). | ||
|
||
To check whether link sharing is disabled in your OneDrive site, run the following PowerShell command: | ||
|
||
```powershell | ||
(Get-SPOSite <your OneDrive site URL>).DisableCompanyWideSharingLinks | ||
``` | ||
If link sharing is disabled, run the following PowerShell command to enable company-wide link sharing for your OneDrive site: | ||
```powershell | ||
Set-SPOSite -Identity <your OneDrive site URL> -DisableCompanyWideSharingLinks NotDisabled | ||
``` | ||
Typically, the URL for a personal OneDrive site is in the following format: | ||
`https://<tenant name>-my.sharepoint.com/personal/<user principal name>` | ||
To fix this error for a group form, sign in to the Microsoft 365 group's SharePoint site, and then follow these steps: | ||

Follow the steps in [Enable or disable site collection features](https://support.microsoft.com/office/enable-or-disable-site-collection-features-a2f2a5c2-093d-4897-8b7f-37f86d83df04) to disable the **Limited-access user permission lockdown mode** site collection feature is enabled if it's enabled. | ||
1. Enable the *People in your organization* sharing links if they're disabled. | ||
**Note**: You must be a SharePoint Online administrator and a site collection administrator to run the following PowerShell commands in [SharePoint Online Management Shell](/powershell/sharepoint/sharepoint-online/connect-sharepoint-online). | ||
To check whether link sharing is disabled in the SharePoint site, run the following PowerShell command: | ||
```powershell | ||
(Get-SPOSite <Group SharePoint site URL>).DisableCompanyWideSharingLinks | ||
``` | ||

```powershell | ||
Set-SPOSite -Identity <Group SharePoint site URL> -DisableCompanyWideSharingLinks NotDisabled | ||
``` | ||
Typically, the URL for a Microsoft 365 group's SharePoint site is in the following format: | ||
`https://<tenant-name>.sharepoint.com/sites/<group-name>` | ||
> [!NOTE] | ||
> If information barriers are enabled in your SharePoint site, company-wide link sharing is disabled if the [mode](/purview/information-barriers-sharepoint#sharing-sites-for-ib-modes) is set to **Owner Moderated**, **Implicit**, or **Explicit**. In this case, change the information barriers mode to **Open**. To check the information barriers mode of your site, run the `Get-SPOSite <Group SharePoint site URL> | Select InformationBarriersMode` PowerShell command. | ||
