OneDrive sync client - How can I download the latest version?
Hi I'm trying to download the latest OneDrive sync client from: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/New-OneDrive-sync-client-release-notes-845dcf18-f921-435e-bf28-4e24b95e5fc0?ui=en-US&rs=e...

my blog post about that. Keep in mind, no automatism, you have to set the registry key manually. it is the same version like the preview.

We are seeing our Windows 7 clients (which had user self-installed client version 17.3.6517.0809 previously) self-update to version 17.3.6720.1207 with no apparent network (or user) impact.

No. I haven't seen any resync.

Looks like the updated .1207 version is being propulgated thru our users on our tenatnt. Does anyone know if the updated client on the desktop instigates a resync of the files to OneDrive in the portal? We are seeing an up tick on traffic and wondering if that coula be the cause..

Unfortunately, the link to the Windows version contained in https://support.office.com/en-us/article/New-OneDrive-sync-client-release-notes-845dcf18-f921-435e-bf28-4e24b95e5fc0?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US#windows, still points to version 17.3.6517.0809.
It appears that it is not possible to download directly the bits of newer production releases (assuming that such bits are actually different from the bits of preview releases, which is not perfectly clear...).
On the other hand, for all my regular (i.e. not preview) users, yesterday the the latest OneDrive sync client (NGSC version 17.3.6720.1207) has been automatically downloaded and installed.
- Richard TinkerDec 16, 2016Copper ContributorTwo days ago on December 14th a new production version of the new OneDrive Sync Client for both Windows and Mac were released.
1) Windows (Version 17.3.6720.1207)
2) Mac (Version 17.3.6720.1207)
There is a link to download each client from the New OneDrive sync client release notes.

In our estate we have user running Version 17.3.6517.0809 and are not sure if this update will remove the older GROOVE.EXE client and deliver the following capabilities:
1) the ability to Sync SharePoint site libraries.
2) the ability to sync data shared with you by someone else
Has anyone yet rolled this out to you end users and how did you tackle this?
We have a combination of unmanaged Windows 7 and managed Windows 10 clients and Macs (for which we already have a client update strategy)
Cheers,

We have to wait for the final version, announced for this end quarter!!!
The graphic for the Mac version is the same for Windows....

Hi there,
So I think we can agree that the OneDrive Release Notes und Download Options are messy at the moment.
Today I noticed a different blue OneDrive for Business Icon, I've checked the version and it's "Version 2016 (Build 17.3.6720.1207)" which is anywhere mentioned.
The new last activity fly out menu is still not visible to me though, guess we'd need a registry change https://www.deskmodder.de/blog/2016/12/11/onedrive-zeigt-neue-ui-und-neues-icon-in-der-17-3-6720-1207/

the link is general, English, from there you cand download the 6706 version and not the 6707 !!
the previous preview version was in Italian too...
a lot of confusion!!!
