+ | Shortcut files aren't supported for migration and therefore not migrated. As well as the following: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * Files larger than 15 GB are not migrated. | ||
+ | * Files with a size of 0 bytes (zero-byte files) are not migrated. | ||
+ | * The following characters in file or folder names are removed: | ||

+ | **For links in the wiki** - if you are the folder owner, once you have migrated docs into MS365, go to the wiki and use the search function and simply search for sync.com or google.com. Follow the links and if you recognize any of the documents, locate in MS 365, get a shareable link and replace the existing one. A quick search of the wiki has revelaed only a few such links | ||
