I had a request from my wife (who also works in IT) to work on a script to check to see if I can find a way to see if OneDrive for Business is installed on a users profile. So this batch script was born.
This script works when the user clicks on the batch script. The script will search for if the executable is on a users local AppData folder and if it is not there, it will install it from the Program Files directory so the executable gets stored in the AppData folder. It’s a fairly simple script and has been tested in Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and I’m sure it should work under Windows 10 as well. Please feel free to use the script if you want!
Here is the code as shown below:
