Known Folder Move with OneDrive and ProfileDisk

Note: This KB assumes that your users are already using a ProfileDisk and OneDrive.

Problem:
User shell folders - Documents, Desktop and Pictures are currently redirected to a \\Serrver\Share and you would like to use OneDrive's Known Folder Move feature to backup the data to OneDrive.

Description: 
Known Folder Move (KFM) is a feature in OneDrive that automatically backs up and syncs your Desktop, Documents, and Pictures folders to the cloud. 

Note: After applying these settings, Documents, Desktop and Pictures data will reside on the ProfileDisk. Verify that your ProfileDisk is properly sized.

Resolution:

Create new registry module rules to enable KFM.

• Use the following to create the new registry rules.

Create new Folder Redirection rules to copy the data to the OneDrive path.

Open CMD and run SET. Verify the %OneDriveCommercial% environmental variable exists. This variable will be used as the target path.

• Use the following as an example to create the new folder redirection rules.

  

  Create a rule for Documents, Desktop and Pictures if needed.

  Ensure these new rules are run after your existing rules.
