Can't set up One Drive
I'm trying to set up a One Drive backup. The online instructions say to launch the app and click the 'OneDrive Help and Settings' icon (gear wheel). I launch One Drive and I get a File Explorer scree...
I stand corrected. It does upload the files in the folder, it just takes a long time. Still, it will take days to upload one folder at a time. Is that the best Microsoft can do?
Hello Neptune!
Thanks for quick response as well.
Im sorry if there's any problem. But you need to link the drive to your OneDrive, even if you dont... as long as you upload the folder itself, OneDrive will upload any changes made to the folder.
The Solution No. 1 is to transfer the files to your Main drive, then to OneDrive.
The fastest is just your explorer, Go to OneDrive folder as you said it openes up eariler, Create a new folder and call something like External drive. Now just copy the files from J:\ using ( Ctrl + C ) to the OneDrive folder you just created using ( Ctrl + V )
Now its 99% faster i gurantee. If there's an error , let me know.
Thanks

- Hello again , thanks for your quick response.
Did you try to copy directly from J:\ to the OneDrive?
Let me know and i'll help more.
Thanks
Ehsan G. - Under the Bruce - Personal folder is a folder named J-Drive, which seems to be a mirror of what I have uploaded so far. Its capacity is only 47 GB, so it appears I can't put all the remaining folders in there, either.
