Revert the Shortcut to its Location in the OneDrive Sync Client

OneDrive (like other Cloud Storages e.g., Google Drive) is not good in handling shortcuts due to the File Explorer limitations and the same can cause the error unable to move shortcut. Especially, if you have recently moved a shortcut (mainly, of a file/ folder shared by someone else to you) from (or to) the OneDrive’s root directory. In this case, reverting the shortcut to its default location may solve the problem.

Stop the Sync of the Particular Folder and Delete the Shortcut

If moving back the folder to its original directory did not work (or not fulfills your requirements), then stopping the sync of the particular folder and deleting the shortcut may solve the problem.

Use the OneDrive Web to Delete the Shortcut

If the problematic shortcut is not available in the OneDrive client or deleting it there did not work, then deleting the problematic shortcut from the OneDrive web may clear the unable to move shortcut problem.
