Solved Force files saves to OneDrive

Windows 11 pro version 22h2

Hi Everyone. Is it possible under this 11 version to force users to save files to OneDrive? I've looked at system/storage/where new content is saved, but it only permits a drive letter - not a file path.

Thanks for any ideas

You can change the location of your documents/pictures/music folders to OneDrive. Move the folder using Properties

Each user would need to do this, and you'd need to make sure the users have enough OneDrive storage space
