Windows 10: How can I find the "network path" for my OneDrive folder/account? TOSHIBA e-STUDIO356...

I am setting up my TOSHIBA e-STUDIO356 Printer/Scanner and using TopAccess to have scanned documents be sent to an arbitrary network folder. In this case, I want to setup my OneDrive, so that any scanned documents be sent to a folder in my OneDrive. In this case, what would I be putting for my Network Path? I understand the Login User Name and Password to be the OneDrive credentials, but how would I come up with a viable network path for my OneDrive folder?

This PC leads to the OneDrive folder.

The folders the you see on This PC are linked to your
OneDrive account, therefore when you open the folder or file, the path automatically routes to OneDrive. To prevent this from happening, we suggest that you unlink your
OneDrive account by following the steps provided in the previous post. Once you're done, you can then sign back in and change the path of your
OneDrive folder.

NOTE: OneDrive can sync only with folders on a drive formatted with the NTFS file system, which is most commonly a hard disk drive on your computer, or an external hard disk drive. Portable storage, such as USB flash drives
or solid state memory drives, use a different file system and won't sync with OneDrive.

Let us know if you need further assistance.

 

OneDrive - Another over complicated product from Microsoft?

I recreated what I think you wanted on a virtual machine, in a very straightforward way. Here are my steps.

Step 1: Launch OneDrive for the first time. Click on the option at bottom to change the default location for my OneDrive to a second hard drive on my system. (if you already have oneDrive setup, go to settings and choose Unlink account to get back to this point).





Step #2. Create a OneDrive folder on my E:\ drive, and select it.



Step #3. Go into newly created E:\OneDrive and create folders for Desktop, Documents and Pictures.



Step #4. Go to C:\users\user\{Desktop,Documents,Pictuers} and move them to your new E:\OneDrive\{Desktop,Documents,Pictuers}




Step #5. Run a test, using Quick access area, create a test file on the desktop folder.





Step #6. Now, go to E:\OneDrive\Desktop and verify that the file is really there




Step #7. Ensure the right folders are checked to Sync




Step #8. Optionally untick the Files on Demand feature to make 100% sure that the files are actually stored on your hard drive.





Seems pretty easy to me.

 

Library Folders and Onedrive

Keith

I have now done the Location Move on the folders affected

One change has shown up. Previously even though a Folder location was changed the original folder remained, you suggested deleting it after removing it from the Library. In the past I have left it where it was to allow programs that refer to the Documents
folder via the UNC path to still have somewhere to drop files.

However after the move I found the Library now only had one path listed (in OneDrive) and it had been removed from the original location. So the result is as you suggested but I didn't have to do it.

I know there was an issue with build 1809 deleting files when it removed the folder (there were none in mine anyway) but this computer is build 1803.
