OneDrive: Configure Sync Setting to excluded specific files

If you're an avid OneDrive user, you'll be pleased to know that the platform is rolling out a new feature that allows you to configure sync settings and exclude specific files and file types from syncing to OneDrive. The configuration settings can be found in the OneDrive admin center and will be available in the General Availability Release phase starting from June CY2023.
Whether you're working on a team project or simply want to keep your personal files organized, this new feature will give you greater control over what gets synced to the cloud. You can now exclude those large video files or bulky PDFs and keep your OneDrive streamlined and free of clutter.
Overall, this is a useful addition to OneDrive's functionality that will undoubtedly make the platform appealing to a wider audience.
