    Back-up files on an a usb to OneDrive


    So my PC currently backs up all my files on my C: drive (desktop, photos, etc.) and keeps everything in sync as it should. But is there a way to add folders on my D: drive so they automatically back up and keep in sync with one drive?

    The main reason: I download a lot of memes, photos etc. straight onto my usb stick which is always connected to stop my main drive being cluttered but I wondered if there was a way to keep this folder backed up on onedrive like the folders on my main drive.

    I want to be able to access these downloaded files from the onedrive app on my phone.

    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.

    I never used OneDrive, I copy my important files to USB sticks and external harddrive.

    Yeah it's amazing how many people put their shit on places like Onedrive and such and all so concerned about privacy.
