Which version of OneDrive am I using? Ensure Groove.exe is no longer installed However, the previous sync app (Groove.exe) is still used and supported for earlier versions of SharePoint Server. The new OneDrive sync app (OneDrive.exe) is the recommended option for SharePoint Server 2019 customers. These changes also don't affect your organization if you deploy Office using the traditional Windows Installer-based (MSI) method. These changes don't affect your organization if you're already using the new OneDrive sync app (OneDrive.exe) to sync OneDrive and SharePoint files. When not in use or running, the previous sync app (Groove.exe) is uninstalled, unless: (a) Groove.exe is already configured to sync one or more SharePoint or SharePoint Server libraries or (b) a 'PreventUninstall' registry key is present on the computer. If your organization provides an Office deployment configuration file to Setup.exe, you need to update your file to exclude Groove.exe from the install. The previous sync app (Groove.exe) is no longer installed by default with Office 2016 Click-to-Run. Starting in October 2017, we changed how the previous OneDrive for Business sync app installs for enterprise customers who deploy Office 2013 or 2016 by using Click-to-Run. Groove.exe will continue to work only for files in SharePoint Server.

As of February 1, 2021, users can longer sync OneDrive or SharePoint files in Microsoft 365 by using Groove.exe. Support for the previous OneDrive for Business sync app (Groove.exe) ended on January 11, 2021.
