I need a script to delete the 'Shared with Everyone' folder from OneDrive for Business in SharePoint Online 2013. This customer has 13000 students in his University for which he wants the 'Shared with Everyone' folder in 'OneDrive for Business' to be deleted. The subscription he has is: Office 365 Education E1 for Students. They'll be using the SharePoint Online Management Shell from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=35588 for this. Creating a solution for one user will be OK as long as we can deploy it with a little bit of tweaking for the other 13,000 students.

Hi

Unfortunately, there isn't a way to remove the "Shared With Everyone" folder for all users. As an admin, you can just log into every user's OneDrive for business library to delete it one by one. As here it is impossible due to amount of the users  so let the users delete the folder by themselves.

Please mark it as answer if it helps you solve your problem

Hi Amit,

Thanks for the reply. The main goal of the University is to bar the students from using the 'Shared with Everyone' folder. How will the University check/verify if the students who for instance through an internal mass mailer have actually gone ahead and deleted the 'Shared with Everyone' folder in their OneDrive for Business? It would not be feasible to perform this action for 13,000 students.
