OneDrive Sync App for Mac: Experience Seamless Data Management

Microsoft has announced a significant update to its OneDrive sync app for Mac users, enabling them to enjoy seamless data management and collaboration. The latest feature, known as Known Folder Move (KFM), allows users to automatically back up their important files and folders on OneDrive, making it easier to access and share data across different devices and applications.

For new machines, KFM can be configured from the start, ensuring that all new files are uploaded to the cloud. This means that administrators of organizations no longer need to worry about losing user data during device refreshes. Additionally, users will be able to securely share their data within and outside their organization, promoting increased collaboration.

OneDrive's Known Folder Move feature also enables macOS users to access their familiar folders on different devices and applications without any disruption to productivity. With automatic syncing, users can continue accessing their desktop and document folders as usual, knowing that their content is backed up and secure in the cloud.

The Public Preview of KFM support for macOS is now available, with app version 20.033 required for participation. Existing Standalone app users can download the latest build from OneDrive's release notes to install the Apple silicon version sooner.

In the coming releases, users will be automatically updated to take advantage of this feature. Microsoft has also announced that OneDrive sync for macOS will now run natively on Apple silicon, leveraging performance improvements for a smoother experience.

Overall, OneDrive's latest update is a significant step forward in data management and collaboration for Mac users. With Known Folder Move, users can enjoy greater flexibility, security, and accessibility of their files, making it easier to work across different devices and applications.
