Create a Quota on a specific folder path

One Drive Business removed the ability to configure Quotas on it's service and the fact is, I don't want users storing 1TB of data on their OneDrive folder, much less have to put up with the support requests that will occur when they run into the 20,000 file limit.  That said, is it possible to create a quota on a specific folder, on each workstation, to get around this limitation in OneDrive Business?

"C:\Users\username\OneDrive - Business Name"

I understand those one drive limits, however, this does not answer my question.

My question is not about one drive.  It's about creating quotas on folders on a client OS.

I don't think that's possible in client OS

You might need to use a 3rd party tool for this.

Hi,

Apologize for my misunderstanding, according to your description, we could set FSRM - Quota Management, but this can only be done on server level,

but you can create disk quota for client, it is not possible to set quota for folder in client os.

I'm familiar with that on Windows server.  Any options for the client OS?
