Windows 10: Back up music to OneDrive if it resides on a different partition

I am unable to sync a music folder to OneDrive because it is on the different partition. It seems that I need to copy the music folder to the partition where OneDrive located. I tried to copy it but found that the partition where OneDrive located is full. Please, help me with an easy way to back up my music.

Synching folders on another partition to OneDrive

I'm trying to back up my music to OneDrive. Music folder is located on a separate partition to OneDrive Folder. I can't seem to be able to do it without physically copying the music folder to the partition where OneDrive resides. I made a link with mklink
successfully and the music folder appears in the OneDrive tree but it's physically copied it and now the partition wherein OneDrive resides is nearly full ! There must be an elegant way to do what I want without resorting to repartitioning the HDD. I hope....

 

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.

 

W7 Hard drive partition issue

to get rid of that 100 meg windows partition that setup creates for you on a new install on a blank hdd:

- press shift+f10 when on the partition management screen in setup <-- this opens a command prompt
- diskpart <-- start the windows command line partition management tool
- list disk <--- list the installed hdds in this computer for the next step
- select disk 0 <- might have to replace 0 with the number of the correct disk
- clean <-- this will erase all data on the disk you selected one step up- dont use the wrong disk!
- create partition primary <- creates a primary partition taking up all space on the drive, adjust the command if necessary
- exit, exit to exit diskpart and the command prompt
- click refresh in partition manager and select your newly created partition and install to that
