RichardSharp11I think users will like it, but a heads up before you do the change will be appreciated. I think you want to perform this change in a controlled way. User by user, which is easy in the small organizations I manage. In large organizations that is not an option of course. My own use of the desktop is that I want it to be empty, but I see a lot of users that just store all their important documents there…
In my own use of computer use I need to change one thing: I often use the desktop (folder) as an easy to reach temporary place to store files, a quick way to back-up a file or folder that's giving a problem in OneDrive when I need to troubleshoot the real folder. Or when a user has really large files (video or Outlook PST's) stored in OneDrive that take ages to upload. So I need to change my behaviour to use a temp folder on the user's hard drive. :-)
