Thanks for all info, a question I am a bit confused about it, if I setup Retention Policy for 7 years for Preservation hold library & deployed for one of A Sharepoint site, if there file not modified for 7 years will it move or take copy only to Preservation Hold library? as it might be a document not required to be changed but should stay forever!
is there any additional cost for enabling Retention Policy ? we are using O365 E3
