Update sync folder when team name changes

If your team’s name has changed and you have synced folder(s) from that team to your desktop, it needs to be updated to reflect the new team name. 

How to update your sync folder name

Step 1. Launch OneDrive by clicking the OneDrive cloud icon in your taskbar notification area (Windows) or the menu bar (Mac OS).

Step 2. On OneDrive, select the following:

  • Windows: "Help & Settings" > "Settings"
  • Mac OS: "More" > "Preferences" 

Step 3. Go to the "Account" tab, and select "Stop sync" for the folder(s) that is affected by the name change. 

Step 4. After the sync is removed, re-sync the folder(s) again. For more information on how to sync Teams files on your computer, visit the Sync Teams files on your desktop page.
