Thanks a lot for the video. Could you help me with a situation: The private channels doesn't stand right below the team just like de "general" channel does. There's a way to change the folder address?

5:53 The more you know. Thank you, made this much more mentally digestible.

[@werneretzelstorfer923]

perfect explanation! Thx

[@Alexander-Aurelius]

Much appreciate and simple. Every other video was either no help or overly complicated.

Thank you for this video!

This is great thanks. But once you’ve synced and see the file under the SharePoint folder in explorer, if you want to get rid of that how do you do that. I can stop sync in the OneDrive settings but can’t get rid of old stuff in explorer.

[@ThatOfficeGuy]

Do you want to force everything back onto the cloud but keep access or remove the sync and remove the files?

[@midlifecurious]

That Office Guy I want to remove the files, folder and sync.

[@ThatOfficeGuy]

@@midlifecurious the way I do this is to open the OneDrive app and stop the sync, I then do to the folder I no longer require (the root directory) and delete the folder with all sub folders and files. Then empty the bin to remove the files from the device.

[@midlifecurious]

@@ThatOfficeGuy That worked, thanks so much.

[@ThatOfficeGuy]

You're welcome 😊

[@ruellozada2798]

can you sync to include other columns in the sharepoint folder, like Title or description into the Explorer?

[@VinodYadav-nn2lj]

How to desync the folder that we synced earlier? Does any one know?

[@myleneg.888]

1:26 : it does not show all your folder, your private one is missing and I have the same issue : any solutions ? Thanks a lot for your videos :)

[@ThatOfficeGuy]

For your personal OneDrive files you will need to go to Office.com and open the OneDrive app, from there you will see the sync button and that will allow you to sync OneDrive onto your computer too.

[@CarlyleSmith]

@@ThatOfficeGuy I think he meant the "private" channel, not your OneDrive. In any case, I have the same question.

[@ThatOfficeGuy]

Private channel actually act as separate SharePoint sites within SharePoint. You can map these private channels in the same way you map a team but you’ll need to do it via the private channel itself or search SharePoint for the private channel.

I have a business client that has several PCs and one Mac using this Team feature. Is there a way to accomplish this same task of linking the Teams Folder/files to the Mac 'File Explorer'?

[@akshaywaman9339]

Thank you so much. You made life easy🙂

My department just recently started utilizing Microsoft Teams. Previously, we were utilizing our local network shared drive files to manage our documents. Now that we’re using Teams, I was wanting to sync all of the files we’ve been using into Teams so that my department can now access everything they need in one location. The problem is I am hesitant about syncing One Drive since technically we’re not really using One Drive, but instead using our local network files. One Drive and our local files seem to be separate from each other. Am I wrong? If not, how can I sync those files from our local network into Teams? I hope I made sense with this question, ha!

[@ericrobinson7417]

did you ever figure this out lance?

[@Layton_2010]

@@ericrobinson7417 no unfortunately not. I never received an answer for this

1. how to remove/delink it from file explorer without disturbing or editing/removing any file from teams/sharepoint? 2. how to get the latest updated file copy from teams sharepoint to file explorer if that file have red cross status( having sync problems) need the cloud copy instead of local?

[@abdoabdo-yb9md]

I can sync my personal one fine but my teams one does not appear.

Completely not helpful

[@Layton_2010]

Well then! Lol what wasn’t helpful about his demonstration? Maybe he could elaborate more for you if you explained more than just “completely not helpful”.
