I love how you are not thrown by unexpected results "just pretend it didn't find that file". HaHa A good lesson in teaching. Also liked "great question! I don't know".

Chris, great video, thank you for posting. Question- on your OneDrive view you show the status column as a separate column. Mine shows the check mark and status as part of the file name. I’ve tried to change the view on both desktop and online. How do I change my view to show status as a separate column?

Thank you Chris! Very clear information!
I have one trivial but important question. After you create the personal and work accounts (white and blue cloud icons on taskbar), which of the two accounts (folders) should be accessed when you open (double click) the win10 OneDrive desktop app?

sir, i am quite frustated. please help me. As the space on C drive is too low (old computer), i selected a folder on E drive (extra SSD installed in the computer) for One drive. when i linked it with my One drive (online), it synced all documents. One of selected to be 'on the desktop'. whenever i make changes, nothing is uploaded. sometime, few files are uploaded but always a sing of two up and down arrows remain. When i open one drive online, i do not see any changes even after one hour. My question is that is it necessary to have files/folder in the' document' folder? please help me
