  1. OneDrive almost full, but less space is used


    I have 100GB of space on OneDrive for my work account. Currently, I only have "My Documents" synced with OneDrive and always keep a local copy on my computer. The OneDrive settings shows me that I am using 76.0 GB on my computer, but my storage is almost full, with 98.7 GB being used. I already logged into OneDrive online and emptied the recycle bin, primary and secondary. I don't understand why there is a 20 GB difference and the notifications are getting annoying. Is there any way to see why it shows me more occupied space than I have?

    :)

  2. Windows 10 - OneDrive

    Right click on the app and one of the properties has an option to not automatically start it. Uncheck, restart the computer, and it should stop. If you want to go another step further, find the OneDrive app in the start menu, right click on it and uninstall.

    If that is still insufficient, there is a batch uninstaller for OneDrive available online. I can copy the code here if you need it.

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
    Fan speeds
    Power limit
    Temp limit
    Voltages
    Core speeds
    Memory speeds

    Taskbar with blank space

    It may be possible that the blank space on your notification area is connected with the OneDrive app. We can reset the app by following the steps below:

    • To open the Run dialog box, press and hold the Windows key and press
      R.
    • Type %localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\onedrive.exe /reset and press
      Enter.
    • The OneDrive icon will disappear and reappear for a few minutes.
    • If the OneDrive icon doesn't appear on the notification area, open the
      Run
      dialog box again and type %localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\onedrive.exe and press
      Enter.

    Keep us posted with the result of the steps above.
