Move files to manager OneDrive for Business account from account disabled from OneDrive for Business
I understand that you would like to move files from a disabled OneDrive for Business account to a manager’s OneDrive for Business account. Unfortunately, there is no direct way to move files from one OneDrive account to another.
However, you can copy the files from the disabled account to the manager’s account by following these steps:
1.Sign in to OneDrive with your admin account.
2.Go to the user properties page of the disabled account and select OneDrive.
3.Under Get access to files, select Create link to files.
4.Select the link to open the file location.
5.Download the files to your computer or select Move to or Copy to to move or copy them to a shared library in your SharePoint site.
6.Alternatively, you can use a third-party tool like ShareGate or CloudMigrator365 that can help you migrate files from one OneDrive account to another

Deleted we are using Sharegate yet downloading hundreds of GB to then to upload them is not feasible.
I understand your concern about the data transfer involved in moving files using ShareGate. Here are some steps you can follow to customize your migration job in ShareGate:
1.Select Copy from the menu.
2.Select the migration you want to perform.
3.Connect to your source environment.
4.Select the source target of your migration.
5.Click Next.
6.Connect to your destination environment.
7.Select the destination target of your migration.
8.Click Next.
9.Select the source content to migrate.
10.Click Options on the top right corner.
You will now be on the Copy options screen where you can customize your options to fit your migration job. Please note that depending on the type of migration you are performing, some options may or may not be available.If you’re still facing issues, I would recommend reaching out to ShareGate’s support for more specific guidance.
Please note that while this process might still involve some data transfer, it would be handled by ShareGate itself, potentially making it more efficient than downloading and uploading the files manually.
