OneDrive restricted

[garethEds]

Good evening All,

 

I'm having an issue with OneDrive on Windows 10 1909 on our LEA network. I wonder if anyone would have an idea what GPO setting would stop it opening? I can connect to it and it lists the folders in File Explorer - but clicking on anything gives me a restriction. I have attached the screen shot.

 

Any help appreciated.

 

Thanks

Are you sync'ing it locally rather than FoD? If so can you access C drives or is that blocked?

It needs C: access, which is why I can’t deploy it as that changes big chunks of our GPO and profiles setup (it also doesn’t play well with mandatory profiles due to deletion on logoff).

Hi all - found a work-around on the web - basically to give access to the C drive. Not ideal - but it's only for staff laptops - so I don't have to worry about curious students.

 

However - in the near future I will have to change this.

 

Time for a tweet to the OneDrive team.

You can hide C drive, you just need to make sure you don't deny access.

If you have suitable permissions in place on the folders to stop students from having modify/create rights to locations where they don't need it shouldn't be an issue.
