Where Are My OneDrive Files?

Описание: ☑️ What OneDrive does with your files can be both frustrating and confusing. I'll walk through two important aspects: what's really on your computer, or not, and the impact of using OneDrive's horrid backup "feature".

☑️ Your OneDrive files
OneDrive files can live in different places and perhaps be only partly downloaded. They might be on your PC, online only, or completely hidden. OneDrive’s backup “feature” complicates things by moving files without telling you. Remember, if your file’s somewhere within OneDrive, check OneDrive.com online. Everything should be there.
