This policy setting allows you to hide specific file locations when the user opens or saves a file. This helps prevent users from using either the local PC, SharePointServer, or Microsoft Office 365 cloud-based file locations such as OneDrive or SharePoint Online, to open, save, or share files.
Note: This policy setting only applies to Word, PowerPoint, and Excel.
If you enable this policy setting, you can specify which file locations are hidden when the user opens or saves a file.
If you disable or don't configure this policy setting, users can use the local PC, SharePoint Server or any configured Microsoft cloud-based file location to open, save, and share files.
