How do I auto save everything into OneDrive instead of my laptop?

[TStanz]

Thankyou sir. It is very to easy backup the data in onedrive from old system and restore from one drive into the new system

Hey thanks for the video, so if i have ton of files and i do that drag action, how will i know that the upload is complete?

[zackvizeman]

You have to check your subfolder because when I look at subfolders, if I go two levels into a subfolder, I see no files (VERY DANGEROUS not checking what has been downloaded to OneDrive)

I'm having trouble with an issue of adding my pictures to the one drive, I only have the base limit of space of 5 gigs and don't need to back up my 50 gigs of lifetime photos as I back them up to a external usb drive. How do get one drive to exclude certain folders so they are not backed up to the one drive? This sounds like something super simple what am I missing?

How can I set automatic daily backup system on OneDrive??

Onedrive lets you essentially put your old computer stuff to you new one? I mean like, its just like the original in the new. Files, login, etc and all? Like if I say am always logged into Netflix, will that move that already signed in thing to the new computer?

How does my one drive on my laptop sync with my one drive online? Is that automatic? How can I check the settings. Do you have a video for that? Thank you

OneDrive works OK but it does not backup long path name (path name is too long and skip the subfolders at third level and later)

[mitza]

So you can just go ahead and drag ''this pc''?

Hi. Nice job with the video. A question. Once I back up a folder to OneDrive, will subsequent changes, additions, or deletions to that folder be automatically reflected in OneDrive. Or ... will it be necessary for me to back up the folder again?

[IlIKRATOSIlI]

How do you make sure new files added to those folders are automatically synced?

[richardsmotherman]

Problem is, when I drag and drop my folders (of all my projects) WILL NOT copy anything more than 1 directory deep! This makes me sad. Just about all of my projects have multiple folders with more files within them. Like a web page WEB/IMAGES/BACKGROUND.JPG. Nothing more than WEB will copy over. You may see IMAGES but it will be an empty folder. This makes me very sad.

[marakiaemero]

my folders are empty after i dragged them. do you know why?

[User-xwkd]

Will it auto update changes that I make to the file on OneDrive?
