How to manage other people's files on onedrive
Hello everybody!
As a Microsoft 365 administrator, how can I manage user files on OneDrive, including browsing, editing, and data recovery?

You can manage the user files by going through the steps below:
Go to the Microsoft 365 Admin Center
Navigate to:
Users > Active Users > [Select User]In their profile, under OneDrive, click Create link to files
This will give you access to their OneDrive as an admin — it opens in a browser and you can manage the access of the files
Also you can manage the external sharing from the same place.
Best,
