Folder Redirection
If we are talking about Microsoft 365, I would very much like to see "Folder Redirection" to OneDrive.. so that Desktop, Documents can be easily retained during a "Reset/Recovery" process. Like State...
It's still a little early to say. Today, you have to manually set up OneDrive for Business, which gets the folders in place; once that's done, policies to redirect the folders work fine (although existing data doesn't move). Hence the reason to make it easier overall :-) I wouldn't expect the changes to cause any problems if you've already set this up.
Hey Michael Niehaus, since the sneaky "Silently redirect Windows known folders to OneDrive" GPO setting is now rolling out, do you know any dependencies to the standard Folder redirection GPO setting? For example, are you aware about any data loss or other issues, when both is configured for redirecting (same) folders to OneDrive?
