Microsoft Account Troubleshooter: not updated since Oct. 2013
Hi! I downloaded today (2020-07-14) the tool ( https://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/13976.how-to-troubleshoot-microsoft-account-issues.aspx ) and opened it with 7-zip. The files there are from Oct. 2013. It means that the tool might not know about changes to account authentication. Therefore, it may report wrong conclusions/detections. I may be wrong but it seems to me that the tool needs some updating.

Synch files from Onedrive for Business shared with Microsoft Account to PC?
My customer has shared a folder on his OneDrive for Business (O365 Business Premium) with 2 people. They use a Microsoft Account to access the folder. This works. They want to sync the content of the folder to their PC. This does not work. Is this correct? Is synchronization not possible when using a (free) Microsoft Account? Bonusinfo: I created a teamsite for this situation. The external users can access the teamsite in the browser with the Microsoft Account (as expected for collaboration with customers). When they click the "sync" button in the documents library nothing happens, allthough their Personal OneDrive Folder is opened in Windows Explorer. Do I need to assign them a paid license (or create a internal user with license) for this to work?
