Announcement: Major OneDrive updates at Ignite 2016 include SharePoint Online sync preview
How are people enabling the team site sync within the next gen sync tool? It seems people have been able to test this out already?
Don't look for the 'next gen sync tool preview' or you'll end up with last years announcement. This is the 'sharepoint sync preview' and the link to how to install the software is at:

They call it the OneDrive for Business Next Generation Sync Client, which is confusing (to me at least), since that was released last year.
So am I right in saying this simply alters the registry for the current NGSC client and allows the syncing of the SharePoint sites through a single client now?
Another question I have, how do you remove the Groove client when I can't directly see a Install for it in appwiz.cpl?
Many thanks.

Pfff, after the renaming orgy of SkyDrive, OneDrive, Lync, Skype for Business, Groove, OneDrive for Business, you still get confused by a little more renaming?

- Yeah, what was I thinking. My bad.
