We are using the old sync client (groove) across our organization, and want to start the process of moving to next gen sync
If I enable "Start the New Sync Client" in the "OneDrive Sync Button" in the SharePoint settings:
Will the users be prompted to actually do anything?
Will anything automatically happen (e.g. the takeover if they are on windows 10)?
Or does it wait until the user physically clicks to sync OneDrive or a SharePoint site, will it tell them to install the next client?

Have you seen the article below?
Transition from the previous OneDrive for Business sync client
Early on when I tried clicking the Sync button in a library did not trigger the takeover so I had to manually run OneDrive.exe /takeover. Perhaps that is fixed now.
Thanks, Bruce...

If "start the new client" is enabled and a user does not have the new client installed, must they install the new client, or will the old client still be used to set up the sync job if the user is unable or unwilling to install the new client?
