1. Unlink OneDrive from your PC:

• Go to the taskbar notification area
• Right-click on the OneDrive icon
• Select settings
• Click: Unlink this PC

2. Delete the C:\Users\XXXX\OneDrive folder

3. Create a new folder (target folder) for OneDrive contents, e.g. D:\OneDrive

4. Create Directory Junction for the new folder

• In the command window type

mklink /J C:\Users\XXXX\OneDrive D:\OneDrive

adjusting it to your specific username and selection of the target folder

Hello,

I have a folder on my D Drive.
And also have my OneDrive folder on my D drive.

How can I backup this folder on my D drive to my Outlook every week?
Like if I make changes to the files in that folder, those files should get uploaded to OneDrive each week.
