    Files being held hostage by OneDrive?


    Hello,I'm on Windows 11.I just got an external hard drive and I'm trying to put all my photos from my computer onto it.I go to copy drag and drop a folder from my computer's hard drive and I get a message 'there is not enough space on OneDrive. You need an additional 28.7 GB to copy these files."These files are on my computer, so I don't understand why OneDrive has rule over them.How do I disable this OneDrive ownership of my files and copy my files?

    :)

    Your files held hostage

    IOL reports, that hackers have found a way to hold files on your computer hostage.
    After a break-in, 15 different file types on your computer will be encrypted and an email will be left, telling you, that you can get your data back for $200.
