Migrating Data Using Microsoft Mover (Google Decommission)

Summary

A how-to article for moving OneDrive or Google Drive data from an @nevada.unr.edu email to an @unr.edu email.

Body

Due to recent policy changes on Google's end, the University is decommissioning the @nevada.unr.edu Gmail tenant by May 24, 2024. In line with this change, the student Microsoft for Education tenant is also being decommissioned by April 15, 2024 as students will be moving to the main @unr.edu Microsoft account. We are currently recommending that any active students with data stored in Microsoft OneDrive use Microsoft Mover (https://app.mover.io/) to transfer any saved data from the @nevada.unr.edu Microsoft account to the @unr.edu Microsoft Account.

Note: You can also transfer your @nevada.unr.edu Google Drive data to OneDrive utilizing these instructions. The only change major change you will need to make is on Steps 4-6 where you should select Google Drive and authenticate with your student Gmail account instead of OneDrive for Business.
