Windows 10: How can I sync folders from my D drive.

With the old OneDrive app it was possible to select deliberately folders for syncing. Now it is possible if I use the Documents folder on the C drive. I never keep my files on C drive, because if I have to re-install the OS Windows 10 everything will be lost.

D drive

Hi,

Based on the details you have provided us, it appears that there might be some corrupted contents on the said partition. We can also consider that this is caused by a virus.

• Type Command prompt in the search bar.
• Type-in the following command:
  
  attrib -h -r -s /s /d D:\*.*
