Hi,

It seems you are using OneDrive Windows Client so that you can access your OneDrive files in Windows Explorer? I suppose you want to have the similar experience when accessing OneDrive for Business files, you can download and install the OneDrive for Business sync client from this link below:

https://onedrive.live.com/about/en-nz/download/

Under OneDrive for Business, click "Download Now". After you download and install it, open your personal OneDrive for Business document library. Or, open any SharePoint 2013 or Office 365 website document library. Then, click the Sync button to sync the libraries.

For more information about how to install the OneDrive for Business sync client, please refer to this kb below:

Thank you for the tip. However, when I try to install OneDrive for business, it says the OneDrive for business has been installed. But I see my personal OneDrive only on Windows explorer.

Hi,

If you have one of the following versions of Office 2013, you already have the OneDrive for Business sync client installed:
  • Office Professional Plus 2013
  • Office 365 Enterprise E3
  • Office 365 Midsize Business
  • Office 365 Small Business Premium

Point to the lower-right corner of the screen, and then click Search. Type OneDrive for Business, check if you can find the OneDrive for Business sync client.

I fixed the problem by uninstalling personal OneDrive and installing OneDrive for business. Thank you.
