Hi
We are using OneDrive for Business, but when a new user logs into our meeting room PC's it syncs on there as well.
Is there any way to stop this happening maybe a registry key?
Existing users have had it disabled on the PC's but every time someone new logs in it auto-syncs which is ridiculous.
The HDD's are showing as full every morning and then I have to clear the user accounts again and again.

I don't have a methods for you to disable auto-sync which is more likely associated with your group policy, but I have a workaround for you.
On a shared computer, you can set File as On-Demand status, so that Admin can sync them manually. Click here for more details.
