NGSC Multiple OneDrives
so there are 3 different things:
1) Access to SharePoint Online and Admin Center
we have had the Registry Key in the path, and now this works different.
Look here for this Blog post: Next Generation Sync Client | Registry key vs Admin-Center
2) The Shared with me issue:
Look for this Blog post: OneDrive for Business | Local Sync of ‘Shared with me’ files
3) The Next Generation Sync client and multiple tenants
So you may sync
- One OneDrive (Personal)
- One or more OneDrive for Business
- One or more Share with me (with the restiction: Must be in a folder)
so for the second tenant, as described: Add account (you must have the credentials). Then you may select which folder you want to have sync to your local machine. For Groups or teamsites you have to go to the group via Web-Browser (Edge, Chrom) , go to the library, press the sync button and choose the NGSC client and not Groove!!. If somebody have shared you to a folder, the same behavior.

Salvatore Biscari Hans Brender It seems that the OneDrive, Sharepoint Team Site, and Shared with me capability of the NGSC works for us in most cases. However, it appears that there are two people who receive an error on the Sharepoint Team Site and Shared With Me sync...those two are tenant admins. Is there any reason why this would be happening to these two accounts and not others? One theory is that it may be due to the fact that these are the two oldest office 365 accounts. We have had a couple of other issues where we call MS on account issues and they run some script to update them. Looking for any clue here...thanks.

Are you 100% sure that you are not still using the old client (Groove)?
How many little blue cloud icons do you have in the notification tray?

Salvatore Biscari Hans Brender The version of OneDrive is 17.3.6799.0327 and there is only one cloud icon. I am on Windows 10. Today I attempted this with my account again by deleting the profile from the machine, logging in with my account, setting the registry entry, setting up OneDrive to sync which worked, connected to a Sharepoint Team Site Library and sync'd a folder successfully. I then went to my oneDrive on the web and clicked the Shared with me and went into a shared folder and selected sync. My NGSC stopped and an error popped up stating "Your 'OneDrive - Blah Blah' library has been recreated on the web. Click 'Reconfigure OneDrive' to set up this library on this PC again. "

So you do not have installed Creators Update and your tenant do not have setup the global new client (or you do not know, that you do not have to do so, anyway, the RegKey is not the issue.)
As you described, all things are right, buta) Try SARA
b) advice any other person, to share a folder with data with you
Last week I have seen a folder with some errors on a W10 machine, could not create a subfolder with any name or a file without an error
Have isolated that this was only one folder...
He created a new folder and copies all data form the origin folder with the errors to the new folder
Summary:
There was no error with the sync engine.
Error was is the old folder
1) inside metadata (inide the file history, which is gone after copying the last version)
2) in the underlaying storageTherefore, again, try solution b)

BTW, you can give a look to this thread (but no solution, unfortunately...):

another solution.
1) right click on the blue cloud icon2) Click on report a problem: Describe the issue (with OS and NGSC Version)
3) also link to this thread
Microsoft will contact you

Had a user share a new folder and it works. I had my collegue who was having the same issue try again and it worked. It appears something was done in our tenant that has corrected the issue. The joy of magic.
