  1. accidentaly copied and replaced a file on onedrive


    I received an email from a colleague with an attachment. The attachment had the same name as a file that I had in my onedrive.

    When saved and prompted did I want to replace I agreed :


    I tried to look at previous versions but no info and when I restored via settings it doesn't show me yesterdays date when I did it.


    Any help would be appreciated

    :)

  2. Windows 10 - OneDrive

    Right click on the app and one of the properties has an option to not automatically start it. Uncheck, restart the computer, and it should stop. If you want to go another step further, find the OneDrive app in the start menu, right click on it and uninstall.

    If that is still insufficient, there is a batch uninstaller for OneDrive available online. I can copy the code here if you need it.

    Java.nio.file - Copying files

    You can't copy a folder, thats why it generates an exception (you are trying to copy a folder using a copy file function).
    You probably need to list all the files inside that folder and copy one by one
