    Does it show as syncing on the folder in OneDrive in File Explorer or taskbar?

    It sounds like it's working then, and just needs time to finish syncing. How much data is syncing? Must be a lot. *Smile

  10. You can simply transfer your all data to drive other than C.

    Sure. I use all 3. I get 30GB from OneDrive (as I've had it a long time), about 6GB from Dropbox and 15 from gmail.

    It is a bit inconvenient remembering what is synched where but definitely possible. There are some programs which will consolidate them into one space but I've never bothered with them myself.

    They are about as secure as OneDrive.

    It depends on the added up size of all the pics.

  15. You asked the same question in another thread. There's too many variables to give an answer, but since this is your computer, all you need to do is check the folder properties where all your photos are stored. That will give you the total size of the files together.
