Group Feature of OneDrive going to be removed

Microsoft To Disable Groups Feature In One Drive From 16 October :

If you use Microsoft’s One Drive Groups group-collaboration feature, you’ll need to find something else soon because  Microsoft will shutter One Drive Groups on October 16th.this means that the users, who are using One Drive service for collaboration have to relocate their data to some other new location. This announcement was expected, because lately users were not able to create new groups, for months, they could only work with the existing groups.
Users using Group feature received a mail today saying that the Group feature will not be available after October 16th, 2015. The more important notification was that any data stored in the group will be deleted. If you want to stop your data from deleting, then you have to follow these steps to relocate the data to other folder in One Drive. This process is pretty simple and in normal word it means that you are downloading your file and then uploading it to OneDrive. The mail also tells about the instruction of sharing your files and folders after moving out from the Groups. So if you are using Group features of One Drive, then kindly migrate your data to some other location before it’s too late.
If you use Office 365 Groups, you won’t be affected that feature will live on. But if you rely on OneDrive Groups, similar services from other companies might be worth trying, such as Dropbox’s shared folders feature and Google Drive’s shared documents feature. If you rely on One Drive Groups, take a look around at your other options and give them a try now, before One Drive Groups go away for good.
