adam deltinger Hello Adam, thanks for sending me this link. Unfortunatly this isn`t really what I need. It looks like retention policies are something the admin sets once and then applies to all users. This is not what I want because there might be users that don`t want any of there files delete after sometime because they are all important or whatever.
Perfect would be either something the user can set himself directly into OneDrive or a specific folder that you set the rentention policy for. For example you configure that the folder named "Temporary files" will apply the retention policy but all the other folder don`t.
I hope this makes the point a little bit more clear.

adam deltinger Hello Adam, thanks for this answer. Unfortunatly we currently don`t have the Microsoft Information Protection activated. Is there any way that wouldn`t involve the Microsoft Information Protection?
Thanks in advance.
