Hi,

we are doing migration of network drive file share document file to onedrive using migration manager.
Now we are denying the folder redirection of documents for one user
now after using sync client and logging to one drive sync client, move all the data from network share to onedrive documents, so basically it create a copy of data in one drive documents folder.

How can we avoid this like Disable the Window Folder Redirection Group Policy and make sure to leave the folder and contents on the network file share.

    Hi @Kumari, Anchal

    Do you mean when disable the Window Folder Redirection Group Policy, you do not want to leave the folder and contents on the network file share?

    If so, to disable that redirection, you can have two options as below, do you choose the first one?

    I suggest you choose the second one to have a check.

    Besides, please check whether Richard-4840's reply is helpful to you.
