Diff sync with PowerPoint
Hi, as far as I understand, diff sync for none-office files are delayed. But office files should work with "delta" right now? Or not? How is diff sync is working now?

A 1 Gigabyte file would have to be transferred in full whenever it was changed even if the entire changes made up a single Kilobyte only. Differential synchronization addresses the issue by syncing only the changed bits of a file and not the file in its entirety
Hope that answers your question

Hi ChrisHoardMVP ,
So basically if I have 1 gb Power Point presentation in .pptx format, and add 1 blank slide, then OneDrive should sync only this blank slide?
