In OneDrive, what happens to files if original account disabled, but others have Full Control?
Apologies if this question has been posted previously and already answered:
If a user creates a file on OneDrive, and shares it with others (giving them "Full Control" access) - and then the original user's account is disabled - do the other accounts with "Full Control" still have access to the files?
Thank you for your patience! I hope you're all having a great day.
- As long as the drive still exists, yes.

Thank you for responding! Taking it a step further, if the original account was deleted, would the files/folders with shared ownership with others still exist?
Thanks again for responding. I truly appreciate it.
