The older I become, the more I come to terms with two realities of life: 1) Santa Claus does not exist, and 2) the SharePoint Online changes are happening way too fast.

Here is a scenario. Your employee left or is about to leave the organization, but has left lots of valuable intellectual property in his or her OneDrive repository. Or, maybe someone just left on vacation and forgot to publish a very important Sales Proposal to SharePoint. The bottom line is – you need to access someone else’s OneDrive. With this post, I would like to share a few techniques for you to do this. OneDrive is private by default Before we proceed further, it is important to note that user’s OneDrive account is private by default. Files and folders can only be seen by other employees if they have been shared by the OneDrive owners themselves.
