One Drive Syncing Locations Not Showing All

I have OneDrive for Business 17.3.6799.0327, besides the One Drive for Business folder sync, I also have some SharPoint (and team sites folders syncing).  However I have found that the Settings -> Account -> screen only says 1 Locatin is syncing and does not show the SharPoint folders.

 

It it my understanding that those also should show on the list if I need to stop sycncing the SharePoint folders etc.

 

Am I missing something for how to see the other locations?

 

thanks

Alan

  • If you see the "Sharepoint" entry in the left panel of File Explorer, then you are still using the old sync client (Groove). You could use the new client (NGSC) instead: see https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Transition-from-the-previous-OneDrive-for-Business-sync-client-4100df3a-0c96-464f-b0a8-c20de34da6fa?ui=en-US&rs=en-US&ad=US
