Most users skip this

To fix this 0x80071129 error, you need to tell windows to check the HDD partition and fix if there are any errors in the file system metadata.

Steps To Resolve

This error( 0x80071129 ) can be easily resolved by forcing your PC to scan for HDD metadata errors and fixing them. Follow the below steps to start scan and fix metadata related issues in HDD.

  1. Open command prompt (in admin mode).
open-cmd-admin newbietechie 0x80071129
  1. Run the command in the next line (if your OneDrive is syncing to other drive, then please change the letter accordingly).
    chkdsk c: /f /r
    This command checks the file system and file system metadata of a volume for logical and physical errors. If used without parameters, chkdsk displays only the status of the volume and does not fix any errors. If used with the /f/r/x, or /b parameters, it fixes errors on the volume. For more information on this please check: Microsoft documentation
chkdsk cmd newbietechie 0x80071129
  1. Restart your device and do not press any key while the device is restarting. However, the device will take some time to restart as it will scan the drive for errors.
  2. At the end, once the device is restarted, verify if rename/copy/delete is working.
