  1. Question about OneDrive access from two computers


    I looked through the Tutorials and could not find this question/setup....

    I moved a bunch of files/folders to One Drive from my computer "A". They show up in the windows File Explorer and are easy to access. I want to be able to access these same files/folders from Computer "B".

    One Computer B, when I look at the One Drive folders via File Explorer I can see one folder that is the same on Computer A and B, but then there are two folders that are on One Drive but not see by Computer A.

    So I can created a link to One Drive to access these files/folders (and then access through Internet explorer browser.

    But I want to access theses files from the File Explorer too.
    I am the administrator on both computers and use the login password.

    Is there a way to have both computers access and share these One Drive files from the File Explorer view? I would like computer A and B to have the same files/folders and access.

    :)

  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.

    One computer cannot access other network computers.


    So I've tried every troubleshooting step I know:
    • Double checked that Net Bios was enabled
    • Ran a bunch of network commands:
      • flushed DNS
      • registered dns
      • pinged and located the named computers successfully
    • Reset my router to factory settings

    Nothing works when I try to access via explorer. I'm still baffled by the fact that every other computer can access each other AND access this computer. It's just the outgoing connection from this machine that doesn't work.

    Any thoughts?
