• My one drive is disabled in the task bar, yet my pics and excel files keep going to one drive

  Once you're sure that all your pictures are downloaded to your computer, you can move them to a folder outside of the OneDrive folder and that will remove them from the OneDrive cloud. Or, you can unlink your computer from OneDrive and manually delete the pictures from https://onedrive.live.com/. - Source: Reddit / 4 days ago

• How to download all files [Mac OS] to external USB drive?

  From what I've read, those files are Apple File System clones and not really duplicates. Anyway, I think you would need to get a 1 TB external drive, set it has your web browser's download folder and then manually download your OneDrive files from https://onedrive.live.com/. - Source: Reddit / 4 days ago

  OneDrive on my personal (family) account (through onedrive.live.com) no longer shows Activity for file changes within the folder.

• Can word files be opened offline easily?

  There are several ways to work with OneDrive on a Chromebook. One way is to install the OneDrive Android app from Play Store. Your OneDrive is then integrated in read-only mode in the Chromebook Files app and when you need to edit a file it opens offline editing for Docs in Office mode. Changes you make are synched back to OneDrive however the use of Google Docs to edit the Word file can introduce unintended... - Source: Reddit / 14 days ago

• Can someone lend me a save? EGS has no cloud save.

  If you have Personal OneDrive enabled and folder redirection enabled in Windows, you might be able to restore the save data from there, depending on how long ago "a while" was.

• My Wife’s HP laptop just started booting up to this screen! How can I get pass it? I tried system restore but it says no restore points found. She’s been using this laptop since last year, she’s never had a problem. She uses it for her work and there is lots of personal data that needs recovered.

  Log on to onedrive and see if all her files are there. If they are download and install a new windows 10 build. The licence will be logged against her account. - Source: Reddit / 22 days ago

• Thought I had stopped using OneDrive, but not sure anymore

  Now, I seem to be getting some emails about my OneDrive being almost full, and I'm trying to figure out if those emails are scams. One (not about being full) comes from [[email protected]](mailto:[email protected]) (which shows as a contact as onedrive.live.com if you hover over the email address and shows some pictures On this Day, which don't look like anything familiar. Is this a legit email? - Source: Reddit / about 2 months ago

• OneNote no longer works on Chromebooks via Office.com which is really annoying.

  It's still working on my chromebook. I have read that having the onedrive app installed on your chromebook can prevent the web versions of Office from working properly, so it might be worth removing any and all Microsoft apps you may have installed. Are you able to access your OneNote through www.onenote.com or https://onedrive.live.com ? - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago

• Can't sync 'shared with you' folder in OneDrive

  I have previously shared folders from my personal OneDrive with another single person. Basically go to onedrive.live.com, go into the folder and choose SYNC to get it to show in File Explorer. This means I can easily load the files on my own copy of excel on my computer rather than view them via the browser - which can stuff up the formatting. - Source: Reddit / 3 months ago
