As the title says, the size of any software folder inside C:\user\XXX\onedrive after compression stay the same as before.

I am seeing the same behavior. CompactGUI just seems to skip all files. No errors in event viewer.

Seems to be inherently due to how OneDrive stores local files using reparse points. Even using the commandline compact.exe can't compress folders on OneDrive
