Favorite folders and files
Can you add a feature to add favourite folders or files for quick access. Not like the recent folder. Like a list of bookmarks that never changes.
Thanks

We’re working on a feature to flag folders and files to access later. This feature will be for commercial accounts (business) initially.

I wish I had 1000 votes for this - I have tons of files and folders in my OneDrive, and the search never yields the results I’m actually looking for. A favorites section would solve this problem!

This is really needed for the web version of course and is a must have -- shouldn't be for just commercial accounts.

Makes so much sense to have this. I don't want to move the documents and folders from where they live, but I would love to have my most used more easily accessible. It would make my workflow so much more efficient!

maybe you should get you AI to complete this. This sync issue is annoying

I would love an update on this feature. Switched from Google Drive due to the better synergy with Microsoft word. This honestly feels like a deal breaker for me. When working away from my main computer I keep having to click and click and click through heaps of folders just to find something I want.
This is just difficult for those of us who have deep folder systems. Very annoyed and something that is really quite simple to do.

YES! A favorite feature for quick access on the app is needed! I use OneDrive on my phone daily to access files and would love a favorite option.

Hi OneDrive team, is there any update on this feature being added?
I see no one is responding to the community :( -

another close mimick would be to include not just files but also folders in the "Recent" folder.

Totally agreed. Favourite folders feature would be very handy. Think about how often you use this feature in Windows Explorer! I can see the future when we don't even need to store anything locally and never have to even open Windows Explorer, just the web browser, to work on our files...

Yes please add this feature! Takes forever to drill down to the file you want all the way from the root folder.

My company just migrated from Google Drive, and I agree -- I miss the "Star" feature. I'd like to be able to quickly find a certain number of important files spread across the vast repository that is OneDrive.

I don't understand why Microsoft even needs "thinking about it" status. What is there to think about? It's a simple feature that would be immensely useful.

Please add this simple feature !!! Just migrated from Google Drive and near impossible to find anything now without having to manually type it into the search field.

Oh, please! I fight on the ipad navigating, especially when it is a shared folder. So favourites or book marks that would also show up when saving to OneDrive from other apps - oh, wow, that would make a huge difference.

Any feedback from Microsoft when this will be implemented?
