OneDrive folders when switching to a new computer
Hi All Let me first explain what I have setup I have created my OneDrive on my computer to sync only selected folders to my SD card. (Many reasons and I have found this very useful) I customized the OneDrive location using this article https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/install-onedrive-on-an-external-drive-6307e24b-d7a4-493f-bf43-47345b2c11fe I now have a new computer and will be just moving this SD card over and all my data should be there and ready to go. I have only selected some of the OneDrive folders to sync and of them some of it is made locally available so I can work on them even if I am off line (like traveling on a plane with no internet) or am in the woods or very remote locations where I get no connectivity. Now to the question I plan to setup my new computer with the SD card and hopefully can follow the article (https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/install-onedrive-on-an-external-drive-6307e24b-d7a4-493f-bf43-47345b2c11fe) and once more link up the SD card (with all the information it has locally) Where does Windows 10/OneDrive store information about which are the folder I have selected and what to do with them? I cannot find this information and maybe I do not need it - unsure about this. If I do as stated in article https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/install-onedrive-on-an-external-drive-6307e24b-d7a4-493f-bf43-47345b2c11fe with the old SD card in my new computer will I be up and running or is there something I should follow to make this work well. Remember I cannot have the SD card in two locations to know the information. Any guidance or pointers from any one who has done this would be very helpful. I wish MS helps people who want to customize or adapt things by giving more clear instruction on how they design or document so people can customize. I struggle with this and how MS does their software. While on OneDrive - anyone written batch files on the computer to create onedrive folders, then share it with users along with setting expiration dates? These can be done on the browser, but one folder at a time with clickoholic interface and it gets repetitive very quickly if you have to do this for 40 students every semester - Of course MS has not way of doing this at all (at least to my knowledge and my reading)
Restoring whole One Drive
Hello, I was clearing one of my devices before giving it away. It seems to have deleted a lot of files and folders on One Drive - which I thought was separate from an individual device. How do I get these files and folders back - not sure if they are all in the recycle bin. Thanks in advance Martin

Dear Onedrive Team many things you achieved are really awesome and cannot be missed anymore. For a long time now the ADMX structure in the Onedrive Client folder is not matching these of other products like - Windows 10 / Server - Office - Teams - Edge I plea to consider this change request to restructure the current folder to meet with the microsoft defaults. Affected Products: Onedrive Client (incl. Onedrive for Business) Affected versions: all Usecase: Users/Admins can pick the files in the folder without intervention and place them to sysvol\policydefinitions Requested Actions: 1a. Machine based installation: rename C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft OneDrive\buildnumber\adm to admx 1b. User based installation: rename %localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\BuildNumber\adm\ to admx reason: The folder contains no legacy adm files but modern admx files adm was used when it does really contain adm files (e.g. Office 2007/2010) 2. rename the folder structure according to the unified language descriptors (also called culture codes) current: en / de / fr expected: 4 letter language code with this convention ab-cd en-us, de-de, fr-fr, etc according to this list, as used in all other MSFT ADMX templates Language Code Table (lingoes.net) I see they are also using codes like en / de for not region specific languages like (German, with not further accent), yet this does not comply with the structure in Policydefinitions and Group Policy Management Console (GPMC) or eventually Intune. 3. Place the onedrive.adml into the specific (currently missing) subfolder en-US current state expected structure (aside there are some languages not shown in this example. cc: Stephen Rose Thank you very much on your feedback, perhaps also why Onedrive does actually differ here from other products, while I hope this is just unintended.

Monitoring and Audit
Hello everyone, Is there any way to view shared via onedrive files/links. we restricted share permission for everyone BUT in some cases we have to give access to it for specific users. But we have no idea what that user is sending. So, as additional control, we need a way monitor that sharing.
Deleted files during sync
Please, help to recover my files. A few months ago during sync my PC pictures of all my life were not sync properly. I stopped the sync, because it mixed all files from my working PC as well. After I stopped it i found out that almost all pictures that were not sync were just deleted. I couldn't find then neither in One Drive, nor in my personal PC, only empty Folders are left. Till now I didn't get any reply from Microsoft One Drive team, after 3 and more letters I just stopped. Please, help me to recover them. Because of One Drive I have lost all my digital archive of my pictures/images.
