Windows 10: File Backup to Onedrive

Discus and support File Backup to Onedrive in Windows 10 Installation and Upgrade to solve the problem; I see Windows has backup to Onedrive, but I don't see a scheduler. Is there a built in scheduler for Windows Backup? Thanks, Dennis... Discussion in 'Windows 10 Installation and Upgrade' started by Dennis18_Se, Apr 5, 2021.

  2. Automatically backup OneDrive Files?

    Hi,

    I would suggest you to use EaseUS Todo Backup.

    After downloading this Kindly follow follow below mentioned steps, i am hopeful that your issue will be resolves by doing this.

    *Launch EaseUS's free backup software and choose "File Backup" option to back up files from your computer or other devices to OneDrive.

    *Select the files or folders you want to back up. Then click "Destination" to select the Cloud Storage > Add Cloud storage service so that you can save your files to OneDrive.

    *Click "Schedule" option to open the Backup Scheme window, here you can create a scheduled backup plan to back up files daily, weekly, monthly or upon an event. For example, you can set at 5 pm, then it will automatically back up these files every day at 5
    pm.

    *Click "Proceed" to automatically back up files to OneDrive.

    You are Done

    Please let me know, if that helps.

    Kind Regards:

    Engr. Malik Yasir

    File History & OneDrive on Demand

    I know that "files on demand" aren't saved on my computer. However, I still have the following problems:

    • After starting a new File History backup from scratch (as suggested in the first response) the majority of my Onedrive , including almost all files that are marked as "Always Keep on this Device" are not backed up.
    • Even for files marked as "Files on Demand" - surely File History should be able to back them up anyway? The whole point of a good backup system is that you have copies of files in multiple places (and OneDrive's cloud system only counts as 1). The creation
      of the file history would be download heavy as it copies every file to my backup device, but after that it should only have to download single files as changes are made.

    File Backup to Onedrive

    W10 Mobile Lumia 830 Backup Not Being Saved to OneDrive

    Thanks Chari San,

    I understand I can not see what is contained in the backup stored on OneDrive, but I should see them listed. In my case there is not one being stored at all even though the phone reports it has backed up. See screenshots from OneDrive from my phone logged
    into the same account the phone is and the backup settings page above. Without the backup on OneDrive my restored phone will lose at least call history, start screen setup and installed app list from what I have found.

    Step #2 is not displayed on the new phone. (How can it restore a backup that is not on OneDrive at all). It skips over that step and I get a default install on the new phone without my call history, start page or app history. I'm not sure what else I
    might be missing but for sure at least those 3 items do not come across.

    How do I resolve this issue? Suggestions?
