One of the easiest ways to do it is by:

First ensure that your OneDrive is Up-To-Date synced with local.

  1. unlinking your drive to OneDrive
  2. Move the folder you want to the desired location
  3. Re-link the folder to OneDrive account
    1. It's ok to merge, as the sync will read all your files as being the latest ones in the cloud. It does this by checking the MD5/SHA hashes of the files and ensures they are the same that is on the cloud.

That's the easiest way!
