Sync a library starting from the OneDrive for Business menuIts
best to sync libraries by visiting them in a web browser, as
described in the previous sections. This saves you thetrouble of
entering a specific web address in the sync app wizard. However, if
you want, you can start the sync appwizard using the OneDrive for
Business menu.
1. In the Windows notification area, select the OneDrive for
Business icon and then select Sync a new library.
2. Enter the web address of the library you want to sync in the
sync app wizard, and then select Sync Now.If you havent synced any
libraries to your computer, the wizard prompts you to sync your
OneDrive for Businesslibrary, and references its web address.
If you want to sync a different library, select Sync a different
library instead and then enter the web address ofthe SharePoint
library you want to sync.
