@Rajkumar Duraisamy - thank you for that info. My apologies, that GPO -&gt;&gt; prevent users from syncing personal One Drive accounts is set to enabled, and when we have the the following URL links office.live.com and OneDrive.live.com block the web access but not the desktop level access.

We have an issue at our company wherein personal one Drive accounts/login/access is not blocked in our enterprise. <br />
<br />
We tried the One Drive GPO (allow syncing OneDrive accounts for only specific organizations and prevent users to sync personal accounts) to restrict access locally on the desktops - it worked when you go to the client -&gt; settings -&gt; add account BUT doesn't work when you use SAVE AS in Office applications. <br />
<br />
Also at the browser level, are there ways to block OneDrive.live.com and office.live.com FQDN on all browsers so users will not reach the these URLs?<br />
<br />
<br />
Any thoughts?
