Hi @Edwald Neo

You can configure it through registry key :

start OneDrive automatically when you login to Windows 11

The registry key can be deployed through group policy preference :

Group Policy Preferences Registry

So, I just create a registry key "Up-date" to point to this location ?

Yes, Update will create the registry if it's not exist

So, this will enable the system to start OneDrive whenever the user sign into their windows profile ?

Hello there,

Based on our research and tests, there is no related setting using Group Policy to control OneDrive start automatically in user’s PC. You can refer to this article to know about all settings about using Group policy to control OneDrive.

However, we can use SCCM (System Center Configuration Manager) to start up program automatically and achieve your requirement.

This article describes the OneDrive Group Policy objects (GPOs) that admins can configure by using Group Policy or by using administrative templates in Microsoft Intune. You can use the registry key info in this article to confirm that a setting is enabled.
