worthy of an update. I have found that this actually works. but it takes days to take effect. The policy applies the registry keys very quickly, but the time at which it takes for OneDrive to show the drives on a machines is waaaay longer than 8 hours. in my case, days and days. up to 4-5. but they do appear.
On thinking about it. it seemed to take 8 hours or so after I rebooted. so it might be worth testing a reboot and them wait up to 8 hours.

Jimbo_Jones The same for me, after setting it up it didn't work. Waited the weekend, and suddenly the synced document library appeared.
Strange and frustrating....

AsTheCrowFlies yeah, this is a user setting. I don't use device settings that much anymore for most settings as user settings seem to apply more reliably. in this case you could have multiple setups for different users as well.

Quubit Did you apply the "configure team site libraries to sync automatically" sites to the computer setting (versus the user setting)? Since S/P sites are user group based I'd assume this is a user setting, yet every article I read suggests there should all be done on the Computer Setting. A lot of the settings exist in both places.
