Is there any way to add and open files shared with me onto my OneDrive
-- ie. To work on those files directly on my windows explorer folder, under my local OneDrive folder?
Came across this article https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Add-and-sync-shared-folders-to-OneDrive-8a63cd47-1526-4cd8-.... However can't seem to find the option to Add a shared folder to my Onedrive. Suspect perhaps its not available on the business version of OneDrive?
Currently using the latest OneDrive for Business client (version 2016, build 17.3.6743.1212).

Salvatore, sorry NGSC stands for...?
So syncing a whole folder to my local explorer OneDrive is possible then...where do I enable, or set that?
Thanks

It stands for Next Generation Sync Client - the new OneDrive client essentially.

SolutionNGSC = Next Generation Sync Client, i.e. the new OneDrive client.
About syncing of "Shared with me" folders, please give a look to https://hansbrender.com/2016/12/26/onedrive-for-business-local-sync-of-shared-with-me-files/

@John Tsalamandris In your onedrive, click on shared with me, then open the folder you want to sync, and the sync button will appear at the top of the folder. Again, this will only work for files in a folder, not in the root of shared with me.
