Here are the top 10 features people want in OneDrive - TechAmok
Here are the top 10 features people want in OneDrive - [briefly] 01:09 AM EDT - Mar,28 2022 - post a comment The list was curated based on the items that the public has requested on Microsoft's feedback portal for Microsoft 365 services. As usual, we will only be listing issues that are "open", sorted by upvote count. As such, capabilities which Microsoft has rolled out in general availability or preview will be excluded. Also note that this list may cover multiple platforms and does not only include Windows. With that said, let's begin!
- Reassess the possibility to ignore or exclude selected OneDrive folders and files from the sync process - 8,468 upvotes
Microsoft: This feature has rolled out for files and we are looking to expanding it to folders in the future.
- Enable syncing over LAN - 7,857 upvotes
Microsoft: We don't have a timeline yet but it's still on our radar.
- Allow shared folders to be stored within sub folders - 5,329 upvotes
Microsoft: We're looking at two related pieces of this:
1) For OneDrive for Business, enable shared folders to be added to the root of the OneDrive folder at all (like in OneDrive Personal).
2) For OneDrive across business and personal, enable shared folders to be placed into subfolders.
We appreciate your patience; this is significant engineering work given the architecture of the products and our diverse customer base, spanning individuals to small businesses to multi-national enterprises to government agencies. We aim to address this while maintaining our industry-leading security, privacy, and compliance commitments. Thank you for the continued feedback.
- Implement a folder tree like Google Drive. It would make navigating and moving files around much easier - 5,236 upvotes

Microsoft: Thanks for the suggestion.
- Ability to access the Personal Vault via MacOS just like Win10 - 4,154 upvotes

Microsoft: We've rolled out an update which includes support for PDF files, images, audio and other file formats. This update doesn't yet include support for video files but we're working on it and will have more to share soon!
