Windows 10: Microsoft account

I have an old email address and a free Onedrive account linked to it. I have a new email address to which I have subscribed for Onedrive standalone 100GB.


Both email addresses are on the same PC.


I am trying to set up a shortcut to my new Onedrive account and transfer photo files to it. But they keep transferring to the Onedrive for the old email and being blocked as that is full.


How do I get the icon for my new account on to the PC so that I can transfer files into that?
