My experience with the new OneDrive Team Site Sync
I must have done something wrong in the process because I am not able to get anything to sync and OneDrive for Business just keep shutting down whenever I try to perform a sync. I'm able to see the Folders I'm trying to sync but there is nothing in them and the OneDrive files I was previously syncing are still there but they won't sync either. Any suggestions?
Did you install and open the new OneDrive client? Even if you don't configure the client prior to syncing, this is a must.

Hi Norman, I might have done something wrong during my setup. Now OneDrive crashes when it tries to load the folders for a OneDrive library. So it does start the sync dialog but crashes when loading the folder structure.
Any ideas on fixing this? Or do I need to wait for an update?

The new build is working well for me, no problems at all with the sync. I have successfully synced my Office 365 Group document libary. However, I have noticed that when attempting to share a document from Windows Explorer, the OneDrive sharing menu is not displayed, so its current not possible to share, or be directed to the online sharing options directly from Windows Explorer when syncing a Office 365 Group document library.

Hi Paul,
I've been talking to Microsoft support about the issue. We have been able to narrow this down to the syncing Office Groups is causing the crash. Syncing SharePoint Sites is not causing any crashes. And the issue is not only for me, but colleagues are having the same issue. So, it might be Office 365 tenant related.
Keep you posted!
