    OneDrive and Windows 11 Sync?


    I have gotten a new Laptop with Windows 11 and OneDrive. 99% of the files in the computer are also saved in my OneDrive account.My first question is, if I delete a file from my computer, does it delete it from the cloud, as well? My second question is, I have an external drive and two old laptops that I want to copy and save to the OneDrive account, so all the files are grouped together. Will those files also upload into the Windows 11 computer? They're only photos, videos, docs,.. no programs or anything. Is there a way to turn that off for certain folders in my OneDrive account. I basically

    :)

  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.

    OneDrive Placeholders are coming back, now called On-Demand Sync

    OneDrive and Windows 11 Sync? [​IMG]


    "At Ignite 2016, Microsoft has just announced that it is bringing Placeholders back to OneDrive on Windows 10. Now, they are not called Placeholders anymore — Microsoft is renaming the feature to “On-Demand Sync” which makes a lot more sense than “Placeholders”.

    The company demoed this feature at Microsoft Ignite today, and it works just like it used to previously. As you can see in the screenshot above, the files stored in OneDrive weighed in around 9GB, but the actual size on disk was only around 3MB which is really neat. Of course, this feature isn’t anything new as it was available back in the Windows 8 days. However, Microsoft removed the feature with Windows 10, and after lots of waiting, they are finally coming back.

    In case you are not familiar with OneDrive Placeholders, it’s a pretty neat feature which lets you see all of your OneDrive files on your computer — but they are not actually downloaded on your PC. When you open them, OneDrive will download the files on-demand, saving your local space which is really useful, especially if you have a PC that doesn’t have a lot of storage.

    While Microsoft didn’t announce when exactly On-Demand Sync will be available to OneDrive users, we suspect it will be available with Windows 10 Redstone 2 — which is expected to arrive early next year.

    OneDrive and Windows 11 Sync?

    Windows 8 Clubhouse

    Windows 10 Build 9879 released (last update for 2014).

    New features:

    1) a checkbox menu option where you can turn off/on Task View and Search icons in the toolbar (I got rid of them XD)

    2) simplified OneDrive experience

    W10 will now use what MS calls selective sync, where you'll need to specify what's saved to your PC, and what MS keeps in its OneDrive cloud. MS appears to be killing OneDrive app, allowing users access to OneDrive strictly through the File Explorer. (fuck yeah!)

    3) 5 new three-finger gestures to swipe through Windows 10's UI

    • 3 fingers up launches Task View
    • 3 fingers down to Show Desktop
    • 3 fingers flick to left/right to switch to previous app (go back 1)
    • 3 fingers move left/right: Alt-Tab (Task View) pops up, and you can select the app you want (remove fingers to select)
    • 3-finger tap: Search
    4) Snap Assist works across multiple monitors

    5) New IE that utilizes Edge rendering engine, designed for improved compatibility with the various sites on the Web.

    6) MKV container support!!! Users can now play MKV files directly from Windows Media Player, including desktop and modern apps), along with proper thumbnail images and MKV support.
