This Week in IT, there's an announcement about Dropbox integration with Microsoft 365 that leaves Google Drive without a major feature that's in demand among Microsoft 365 users. Plus, Microsoft delivers on promises they made last year, bringing OneDrive web integration to the offline sync client for Chrome-based browsers.

** Important note ** In the video, I incorrectly say that OneDrive web client support for offline files works with drives that have 250 files or less. It should have been 250,000 or less.
