Windows 10: Using Cloud storage to free up space on my laptop

How do I delete a folder on my local hard drive but preserve a copy in the cloud using Onedrive? My hardrive is getting full but I may need some of the information again.

how to get back my stoorage space on windows 10?

With only 32GB of storage you're going to be continually challenged by space constraints. In my opinion, OEMs selling computers and tablets with minimal storage need to manage their customers' expectations. Here are some steps you can take to avoid running
low on storage space:

• Empty the Recycle Bin frequently.
• Run Disk Cleanup weekly.
• Store your personal files (documents, pictures, music, etc.) on an external hard drive or in the cloud.
• Do as much work as possible in the cloud. For example, instead of installing Microsoft Office, use Office Online.

Just a heads up that cloud storage is on the backburner at the moment, but I'll get back to you once I've had a chance to explore the options you've suggested to me.

Thanks for all your replies, peeps. *Toast :toast:
