MS 365 Personal - Can't share folder with more than 10 external users
Hi,
I'm using MS 365 Personal and I want to share a OneDrive folder in read/write mode with about 20 specific persons. I have specified their email addresses but only 10 of them have received the sharing link. Is this a known limitation of MS 365 Personal ?
Thanks in advance.
Yes, this is a known limitation of MS 365 Personal. MS 365 Personal plans have a restriction on sharing folders with external users, allowing only up to 10 people to receive sharing links. If you need to share with more than 10 people, you might consider upgrading to a different plan, such as MS 365 Family or Business, which offer higher sharing limits.

Thanks.
But it seems that if I copy the link and share it by sending it directly by email to all people with whom I want to share the folder, every recipient will be able to access it. So, it seems that the limitation is only in the sharing mechanism. Or am I missing something ?

I mean "in the link distribution mechanism".
