UPDATE 09/21/2020:
I have added language detection, which will cause the script to exit if there is any language other than English (en-US).
Also added detection of parentheses, as in "OneDrive - NYIT Support(1)" that was breaking the logging.
---------------------------
after writing and using the previous script, i was not happy with the screen blanking, and the omni-present "OnDemandOrUnknown" status. I have decided to rewrite from scratch, not using any dll files.
This script is the equivalent of a user moving the mouse over the status bar and reading the status tooltip that comes up, and writes the output status to a text file:
.
The written text file (stored in ini format, with a .Error or .Healthy extensions) will contain
- The exact status from the tooltip (minus the "OneDrive - Organization Name" portion)
- Any possible encountered errors with the variable names that caught them
- Count of errors/potential issues.
Script will also check for potential issue keywords that may be a sign that there is an underlying issue and if counted a preset amount of times, will change status to error from healthy.
The script relies on an ini file that should be stored in the same folder as the script.

Setup:
The following files are required:
OneDriveStatus.ini
OneDriveStatus.exe - compiled version of the script. Contact me for the file, or compile it yourself via AutoITScript/Scite Editor. Copy the OneDriveStatus.au3 file box contents below.
A share accessible with read access by users. Example \\SRV1\OneDriveStatus\
A sub folder of the share called Logs with change access for users. For example \\SRV1\OneDriveStatus\Logs\
Both can be stored separately, as long as a user account can access the exe and ini file to copy to the local machine, and a writable Logs folder, so that logs can be stored and updated. The Logs folder should also be accessible to a server that will run a notification script on a schedule.

OneDriveOrgName should be set to "OneDrive - your organization" or however your top line of the tooltip is written. For example:
OneDriveOrgName="OneDrive - NYIT Support"
LogPath should be set to "\\server\share\logs". For example:
LogPath="\\SRV1\OneDriveStatus\Logs"
PotentialAttempts should be set to a desired number, I set it to 6, as I run a scheduled task every 10 minutes, 10x6=60, so if a PotentialIssue is encountered and has not changed on the 6th try (1 hour), status should be changed from .Healthy to .Error.
An example of a potential issue is "Signing In" status, if it shows up for a short time while the script is executing, the status is likely healthy, however if it has stayed that way for over an hour, there is an issue that should be addressed.
FakeStatus should always be empty. It was created as a way to bypass the actual status check for troubleshooting, and force a keyword against the potential and healthy keyword list, or to test various functions of the script without actually encountering a real problem. This is only a toy.
Healthy0..19 should be set to desired status keyword that is always accepted as Healthy. For example:
Healthy0="Up to date"
Healthy18="beautiful day today"
The INI file above has been pre-configured with what i have observed thus far
PotentialIssue0..19 should be set to keywords that are usually a healthy indicator, unless they have not changed in awhile. For example:
PotentialIssue0="Looking for changes"
PotentialIssue1="Signing In"
PotentialIssue18="Downloading"
The INI file above has been pre-configured with what i have observed thus far
The OneDriveStatus.au3 file has the following code (compile it as an exe or run it as "autoit.exe OneDriveStatus.au3")

Compile and place the exe and ini file into \\SRV1\OneDriveStatus
Create a OneDriveStatus GPO with the following settings:
Copy
\\SRV1\OneDriveStatus\OneDriveStatus.exe to c:\software\OneDriveStatus\OneDriveStatus.exe
\\SRV1\OneDriveStatus\OneDriveStatus.ini to c:\software\OneDriveStatus\OneDriveStatus.ini
Set each of the files with the following item level targeting settings under the Common tab:
Adjust as necessary in your environment. This was a quick bypass for not creating anything on servers.
Create a "Scheduled Task (At least Windows 7)" scheduled task in the GPO as follows:
In Group Policy Management Console (gpmc.msc) click on "Group Policy Objects\OneDriveStatus" and hit the "Delegation" tab. Click on "Domain Admins (ACME\DomainAdmins)" and hit "Deny on "Apply Group Policy". Repeat the same for Enterprise Admins and any other related groups that should be excluded.
The above steps can be adjusted for running the script straight from a network share instead of a local folder. I am not a fan of pulling exe/scripts across the lan/wan at 9am and every 10 minutes thereafter, but to each their own.
At this point we are gathering status files in the \\SRV1\OneDriveStatus\Logs folder
Now we move onto creating an email notification.
This part is borrowed from my last post, but repeated here.
Create a OneDriveStatusNotificaiton.ps1 file in the \\SRV1\OneDriveStatus\ folder with the following text:

Dont forget to change the smtp server ip, log path and the destination addresses. Allow relaying on the email server for the source server where the notification script will execute from.
Create a scheduled task on the server that will host the log files (or send email) as follows:
Set a desired notification time:
Program/script: C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe
Add arguments based on script location: -executionpolicy bypass -nologo -file c:\shares\OneDriveStatus\OneDriveStatusNotification.ps1
Enjoy the script(s). I hope they have helped you out with your transition to OneDrive/SharePoint/Office365. Hopefully this is a good starting point or a solution.
Let me know how it works out.
Notes:
The script has been tested on Windows 10. If you have an older operating system, you may need to play with the [Class:ToolbarWindow32;Instance:3] and [Class:ToolbarWindow32;Instance:1] sections in the script.
If Microsoft changes Windows 10 task tray "User Promoted Notification Area" or "Overflow Notification Area" locations, the script will not be able to retrieve information until the script is upated to reflect the changes.
If Microsoft makes changes to OneDrive tooltip status text, the script ini will need to be updated to reflect changes. If the OneDrive icon completely changes it's displayed information, we will need to update and recompile the scipt to reflect the changes.
The script only provides the information available in the tooltip, if it is not correct, the collected data will reflect that.

The script works fine but some come back with the following error:
ErrorArray=||||$mSysTray_ButCount - No items found in system tray: 0x00010166
Do you know how to resolve this?
Hi, glad to see it works.
I have seen this a few times before, each time turned out to be a computer that has been running for a very long time with a possible Explorer.exe restart at some point.
A reboot and logging in of the user usually fixed it. (I know, reboot, the most useless and yet useful IT solution to all problems)
Also have seen some issues where a machine was in sleep mode for a prolonged period and then came back on without the user logging in (users work remotely and rdp in). In all cases the reboot/user logon helped.
I have also seen some issues with improper name of the organization "Company Name" vs "Company Name(1)" as an example, where logs kept repeating and filling up.
Recreating the OneDrive sync setup to remove the duplicate name should correct it.
The "Company Name" vs "Company Name(1)" issue, i am actually currently working on to resolve. Will post an updated script in a week or two. Very busy schedule.
The "Company Name" vs "Company Name(1)" issue has been fixed!
Wow. Major upgrade!
Only thing I miss about version 1 was that it enumerated the folders being synced to the log share. Thanks to that, I discovered that the GPO where "Configure team site libraries to sync automatically" was set was only working about 66% of the time. (No biggie: I can get the same information with a script that checks that the folder exists in %USERPROFILE%.) But that was a pretty important discovery during SharePoint rollout.
Nice job.
MSPs: The reporting script can easily be modified to work with https://checkcentral.cc, so you have a dashboard of OneDrive sync status for all clients. Just add an Else statement at the end to have it send a "success" email if there are no .ERROR files.
Thank you.
Glad you found it useful.
I have added--
PotentialIssue4="OneDrive.exe Not Running"
--in the [Potential_List]. PotentialAttempts remains set at the default 6.
I have a *.Healthy file with these contents--
[Status]
StatusText=OneDrive.exe Not Running
ErrorArray=
PotentialIssueAttempts=14
Shouldn't this be a *.Error file?
Hi,
it looks like you have set PotentialIssue4="OneDrive.exe Not Running", should be PotentialIssue4="Not Running"
Please let me know if that fixes it.
Thanks for your reply.
Not sure I understand why the PotentialIssue4 string should be different from the StatusText string. But it just got weirder.
Now the log IS a *.Error file...and I didn't change anything! I added PotentialIssue4 Tuesday, and the .Healthy log file was dated yesterday afternoon.
However, while PotentialAttempts in the INI file remains 6, PotentialIssueAttempts in the log is 4, so the problem has not yet exceeded the ".Error" threshold.
The first part of the status ini already assumes that it would say “onedrive.exe” as the first part and thus does not need to be added to the ini.
If the potential issue is hit 6 times based on the ini setting, it will become an .error file on the 6th try. Potential issue is for problems that may not be full fledged issues but are a concern if encountered enough times.
Please post the status file and ini file (remove your company name to be safe)
I've not changed anything yet. Here's what I have:

Thanks!
I have just reviewed.
Take out the PotentialIssue4 "OneDrive.exe Not Running" as it is already listed in the script code as an issue to be marked.
It is under:
....
Else
StatusLogging("OneDrive.exe Not Running", "", 0)
Exit
....
So you do not need it listed as a potential issue.
After you remove the text of the PotentialIssue4 delete the .error or .healthy file to let it start over clean.
Here's the back story: On this computer, OneDrive only runs a few hours a day overnight to sync the day's changes. It's started & stopped by a scheduled task due to a conflict with another program. A workaround until we have a better solution. My reporting task is scheduled during the time when OD is supposed to be running, so that if it's not, it gets flagged.
Then I discovered that during working hours, the computer was generating *.Healthy files while simultaneously logging that OD wasn't running.
I'll do as you say on my next site visit, and maybe it will start working this way, but historically, it has not.
In that case, after changing the earlier setting, adjust how the script runs in task scheduler to match the timing of the running schedule of onedrive.
This way it will only fire and check for the status when the user should be running onedrive.
That will not require a change; that's how it works now. "My reporting task is scheduled during the time when OD is supposed to be running, so that if it's not, it gets flagged."
Understand that, historically, when the INI had the configuration you're now suggesting I return to, the log has been named as a *.Healthy file when its contents included "StatusText=OneDrive.exe Not Running". That is my concern.
This means that, potentially, I'm getting a false negative if OD is not running on the computer overnight when it's supposed to be.
I removed the PotentialIssue4="OneDrive.exe Not Running" from the INI file and deleted the .Healthy file that was present. The monitoring script performed correctly, now generating a .Error log. No clue why it wasn't doing that before, but unless it happens again, nothing further needed.
Thanks!
Awesome!!! Happy to be of help.
Thank you
I cant seem to get this working. It looks like there are only two settings required in the ini file. The Orgname and the path to the log files. Then the exe and ini must be in the same folder.
I would have thought that running the exe after this would leave log files in the log file location, but this isnt happening. The exe exits silently without and error.
Please post your ini file here, just change your org and server names to contoso and server for privacy.
