Windows 10: One Drive help please

My computer had Windows 10 and it crashed. Had to reinstall Windows and office etc back.

I have a one drive account with a lot of photos and videos etc. Do I just go to Microsoft and redownload One Drive and it will keep my files I have previously stored? I am trying to avoid losing all my files by doing something wrong or syncing wrong.

I have photos of my deceased daughter on one drive and dont want to lose those so I need some expert advice so I don't screw anything up. Any guidance would be appreciated.

Windows 10 failed attempts to use "Backup and Restore (Windows 7)" function

Repeated backup failures. Running Windows 10, and when the “Backup and Restore (Windows 7) program is run front the Control Panel, I get the messages:



“Check your backup. The last backup did not complete successfully”.



“Windows Backup failed to get an exclusive lock on the EFI system partition (ESP). This may happen if another application is using files on the ESP.”



“Please retry the operation.”



Each time I retry, I get the same result and messages.

Windows 10 came installed on my Dell Inspiron 15 (500 Series) laptop. I have successfully used the same Backup and Restore (Windows 7) program to “Create a system image”, as well as to “Create a system repair disc”.

Please provide me with some insight and suggested actions.

 

Running windows 10 and lost browser connectivity after installing the 2013 Microsoft Office Suite

running windows 10 preinstalled on a new Dell lap top had no problem with windows browser, no problem installing Chrome, no problem downloading and activating 2013 Microsoft Office programs. BUT lost all browser connectivity after installing the 2013 Microsoft
Office Suite. Internet connectivity confirmed along with DNS, pings, etc.

Should I uninstall the 2013 Microsoft Office Suite?

 

You can sign back into Onedrive with the same MS account, and the photos and videos will still be there

 

Thanks. I was worried it would try to sync my computer which now has zero files and overwrite existing files.

 

Try just signing in through a browser first. You can go to Bing, and choose one drive from the drop down of office online





I would also recommend getting an external hard drive, and saving your important stuff there

 

To better explain on the sync settings, it will sync the one drive files also locally on the computer. You still have them on your one drive storage.
