Thank you all for the response. So for example lets say I have a file locally on my machine and like to move it to OneDrive for Business but I do it through File Explorer as it has mapped already my OneDrive I could do a drag and drop or copy and paste (I would not using the web site/UI and clicking Upload>File to execute that action. In the even that we decide to try this file type syncing block, will that mean that I will not be able to drag and drop or copy and paste locally a blocked type file to OneDrive via File Explorer? Thanks!
Yes, exactly! It will take in affect when you sync the file , not uploading it via UI
- I knew what you meant, and you wern't exactly wrong per say :), just he did ask if they could drag to the folder, which you still can, it just gets a little unhappy when you do it!
- Sorry if i was unclear!! Its the sync that’s affected
No, Not quiet exactly :).
You will still be able to drag the file into OneDrive via file explorer, you will just get a sync error on the file and it won't allow it to sync to your OneDrive instance! So at a file system level the file will copy. OneDrive just won't sync it up.
