  1. New Windows 10 Install, Old OneDrive Installation


    I have a C: as my OS/System drive while my OneDrive Folder/Files are on my E: Drive.

    I am replacing my C: drive with a larger drive and after re-installing Win10 and installing Onedrive I cannot access my old OneDrive folder on E: I get an error similar to "System cannot open this folder". It insists I create a new folder elsewhere and if I do I am stuck with downloading 480gb back onto my E: which already contains albeit inaccessible all of these files. Even if I accepted this and recreated a new Onedrive folder and downloaded 480gb of file I am stuck with this old OneDrive folder I cannot delete. My questions are:


    [COLOR=rgba54, 54, 54, 1]Is there no way to make OneDrive use the old OneDrive folder after I upgraded to a new drive with a fresh win10 install?[/COLOR]
    [COLOR=rgba54, 54, 54, 1]If I am forced to create a whole new folder how do I delete the old one?[/COLOR]

    :)

    Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

    I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
