Microsoft 365 Champions community call (Sept 2024 | AM): The latest updates in OneDrive for work
Event details
I'll try and summarize here, but may need to elaborate:
- Issues with hybrid work+personal desktop app.
- Hard to define main account/owner and how to correct when wrong?
- if you install while having already files in the destination folder, instead of comparing, duplicates files
- Sharing: I'm GlobalAdmin in a small no-profit, I disabled sharing outside the company, but this should be for users only, instead I have the same, despite my rights
- In Android: if set up to cack-up pictures in OneDrive, when you delete pictures from device, they still stay on OD. Result: clutter, double work to clean up and possibly space issues!
1. If you are talking about the OneDrive Sync client, we support both Work and Personal accounts at the same time. The Work account is differentiated in the Systray by being blue and in File Explorer by having your tenant name, learn more here https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/sync-files-with-onedrive-in-windows-615391c4-2bd3-4aae-a42a-858262e42a49. I would also encourage you to use a new folder if you are having problems with duplication, OR you could just remove all OneDrive folders beforehand.
2. I would point you to "Allow only users in specific security groups to share externally" here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sharepoint/turn-external-sharing-on-or-off#more-external-sharing-settings
3. I understand this issue, it is a system issue we are trying to resolve. As a workaround, if you use the Android OneDrive app to view your photos, you can delete photos and those deletes will be respected on the device and the service.
