  1. If I delete all my files from the one drive will it delete it off my Computer?


    I had the files on my computer first and have never used one drive until this week for a college assignment. It suddenly started backing up my files without my permission and is at full capacity so I can't do my work. If I delete the files through my one drive, will it take it from my computer even though it was on my computer first? If yes, how do I stop this backup it's really annoying me because I never wanted this in the first place!

    deleting hard drive files

    Hi,

    May we know what type of file are you trying to delete? Would it be Office documents, media files, or picture files? If you're trying to delete files for free some space on your device. We suggest to perform a Disc Cleanup. Kindly follow the steps below to
    perform the task:

    • Type in Cortana Disc Cleanup
    • Choose the files to delete
    • Click on "Clean up system files"
    • Click on Ok

    For any concerns, don't hesitate to get back to us.

    Regards.

  3. Files Deleted During Failed Windows Update

    If you saved your video projects, they should be on the drive (barring any file system corruption). You can give Recuva a try:

    Accidentally deleted an important file? Lost something important when your computer crashed? No problem! Recuva recovers files deleted from your Windows computer, Recycle Bin, digital camera card, or MP3 player. And it's free!​
    Download the portable version on another PC, unpack it on a flash drive, pop the drive in the trouble machine, and run it off the flash drive. You want to make as few changes to the hard drive as possible before running the recovery program.
