在Windows 10中，OneDrive嵌入到操作系统中，作为存储文件、与其他设备同步、同步Windows 10设置等的默认服务。使用它时最常见的问题之一是：“如何更改 OneDrive 的文件夹位置？” (“How do I change OneDrive’s folder location?”). 如果要移动 OneDrive 文件夹并将文件存储在默认位置以外的其他位置，请按以下步骤操作：
OneDrive在(OneDrive)Windows 10中将数据存储在哪里？
在 Windows 10 中，OneDrive也是一个用户文件夹。这意味着什么？如果您打开文件资源管理器(open File Explorer)并转到安装Windows 10的驱动器，您会找到一个名为Users的文件夹。访问它，然后打开您的用户帐户文件夹。在那里，您可以看到所有用户的标准文件夹：文档、图片、OneDrive(Documents, Pictures, OneDrive)等。
Windows 10用户帐户中的默认文件夹
这意味着，在Windows 10中，OneDrive将您的文件存储在以下默认位置：“C:\Users\Your User Account\OneDrive.” 如果您想将文件存储在另一个驱动器、分区或文件夹中，则没有明显的方法可以更改 OneDrive 的默认位置。您可能会假设位置更改与其他用户文件夹一样工作（阅读：(read:) 如何更改 Windows 10 中的用户文件夹位置（文档、下载等(How to change user folder locations in Windows 10 (Documents, Downloads, etc.)），但事实并非如此。但是，您可以通过以下方式快速完成接下来的步骤：
如何在Windows 10中更改(Windows 10)OneDrive的位置(OneDrive)
在任务栏的右侧，您应该会看到 OneDrive 的图标。它看起来像一朵云。单击(Click)或点击它。如果在那里看不到它，请按系统托盘中的向上小箭头。您将在隐藏图标列表中找到 OneDrive。
任务栏中的 OneDrive 图标
提示：(TIP:)如果在系统托盘中找不到OneDrive图标，您可以从“开始”菜单打开(Start Menu)OneDrive应用。您可以在以字母 O 开头的应用程序列表中找到它的快捷方式。
从Windows 10 开始菜单打开 OneDrive(Start Menu)
上一个操作会打开一个弹出窗口，其中包含有关OneDrive的详细信息以及它在 Windows 10 PC 上执行的最后操作。单击(Click)或点击“帮助和设置”(Help & Settings)按钮。
(Help)OneDrive窗口中的帮助和设置(Settings)
这会弹出一个包含各种选项的菜单 - 从中选择设置(Settings)。
打开 OneDrive 的设置
接下来，Windows 10 会显示另一个名为Microsoft OneDrive的窗口。在其中，选择“帐户(Account)”选项卡，然后单击或点击“取消链接此 PC”(“Unlink this PC”)链接。
选择从 OneDrive 取消链接这台电脑
当OneDrive询问您是否确定要取消链接您的电脑时，请按“取消链接帐户(Unlink account)”按钮确认该操作。这会使OneDrive停止同步您的文件，如果您想将OneDrive文件夹移动到其他位置，这是一个强制性步骤。
请注意，在您确认此更改后，系统会提示您登录或创建 Microsoft 帐户(create a Microsoft account)以在您的 Windows 10 PC 上使用OneDrive 。暂时忽略它，但保持窗口打开，因为您稍后需要它。
从 OneDrive 取消关联帐户
下一步是将您的 OneDrive 文件夹从其原始位置移动到您想要的位置。打开文件资源管理器(File Explorer)并导航到 OneDrive 的当前位置。默认情况下，即“C:\Users\Your User Account\OneDrive.”找到它后，选择OneDrive文件夹，然后单击或点击功能区界面中“主页”选项卡中的“(Home)移至”(Move to)按钮。
将 OneDrive 文件夹从其当前位置移动
在“移至(Move to)”选项列表中，选择“选择位置...”(“Choose location...”)。
(Select Choose)在文件资源管理器中(File Explorer)选择选择位置
现在浏览您的 Windows 10 PC 并选择您想要移动OneDrive的驱动器、分区或文件夹。到达那里后，单击或点击“移动(Once)”(Move)按钮。然后，等待Windows 10将您的 OneDrive 文件夹及其中的所有文件移动到新位置。根据文件的数量和大小，此步骤可能需要一段时间。
选择在Windows 10 PC上将OneDrive移动到哪里(OneDrive)
在Windows 10完成移动 OneDrive 文件夹后，您可以关闭文件资源管理器(File Explorer)。
返回打开的OneDrive登录窗口，输入与您的Microsoft 帐户(Microsoft account)关联的电子邮件地址。然后，单击或点击登录(Sign in)。
输入您的Microsoft(Microsoft)帐户的电子邮件地址
键入您的密码并按登录(Sign in)，或使用其他身份验证方式（例如您的Microsoft Authenticator应用程序）来访问您的Microsoft帐户。
对您的Microsoft帐户进行身份验证
然后，OneDrive会向您显示它打算存储文件的位置。如您所知，默认情况下，它是“C:\Users\Your User Account\OneDrive.”如果您想为OneDrive使用不同的位置，请单击或点击“更改位置”(“Change location”)链接。
选择更改(Change)OneDrive的位置
OneDrive 现在会打开一个名为“选择您的 OneDrive 位置”的(“Choose your OneDrive location.”)文件资源管理器(File Explorer)窗口。使用它浏览您的 Windows 10 PC 并选择您之前移动 OneDrive 文件夹的位置。完成后，按下选择文件夹(Select Folder)按钮。
浏览到新的OneDrive位置
由于 OneDrive 检测到“此 PC 上已存在 OneDrive 文件夹”，(“a OneDrive folder already exists on this PC,”)您现在必须确认您仍打算“使用此文件夹”。(“Use this folder.”)
选择将此文件夹用于OneDrive
现在您应该看到OneDrive的位置已根据您的说明进行了更改。单击(Click)或点击下一步(Next)以继续。
OneDrive的位置已更改
尽管现在修改了 OneDrive 文件夹的位置，但仍有一件事需要配置。即选择是否要将桌面、文档(Desktop, Documents)和图片(Pictures)文件夹备份到OneDrive。完成后，单击或点击Continue。
选择将哪些文件夹备份到 OneDrive
然后，OneDrive会向您展示几张幻灯片，其中包含一些有关它的信息以及升级到付费计划的好处（如果您使用的是免费计划）。通过单击或点击下一步(Next)按钮几次来浏览幻灯片，直到您看到最后一个告诉您“您的 OneDrive 已为您准备好”。(“Your OneDrive is ready for you.”)单击或点按“打开我的 OneDrive 文件夹”(“Open my OneDrive folder”)并观看文件资源管理器(File Explorer)启动并将您带到新的 OneDrive 位置。
OneDrive 已准备就绪
仅此而已：您的 OneDrive 文件夹现在已移动到您想要的位置。
我可以更改我的 OneDrive 文件夹名称吗？
有些人问我们是否可以更改其OneDrive文件夹的名称。不幸的是，这是不可能的。我们在互联网上发现了一些证据，表明有些人设法使用它，使用了一些注册表黑客，但结果并不好，而且往往造成的麻烦超过了它的价值。但是，如果您希望能够更改OneDrive文件夹名称，请不要犹豫，在 OneDrive 的反馈页面上投票支持此功能(vote for this feature on OneDrive’s feedback page)。
为什么更改 OneDrive 文件夹位置？
如您所见，更改OneDrive文件夹的位置很容易。您需要采取一些步骤，但它们并不复杂。但是，我们认为，如果Windows 10在“(Windows 10)设置”(Settings)应用程序中为此目的提供了一个选项，它可能会更直接。最后，您为什么要更改 OneDrive 的位置？您(Did)是否将其移至另一个驱动器以确保其安全？还是您的 Windows 10 分区上需要更多可用空间？请在评价部分留下您的意见。
How to change OneDrive's location in Windows 10 -
In Windows 10, OneDrive is embedded intо the operating system, and it serves as the default service for storing уour fileѕ, synchronizing them with other deνices, syncing your Windowѕ 10 settings, etc. One оf the most common qυestions when working with it is: “How do I change OneDrive’s folder location?”. If you want to move your OneDrive folder and store your files in another location than the default, here’s how to do it:
Where does OneDrive store data in Windows 10?
In Windows 10, OneDrive is also a user folder. What does that mean? If you open File Explorer and go to the drive where Windows 10 is installed, you find a folder named Users. Access it, and then open your user account folder. There, you can see all your user’s standard folders: Documents, Pictures, OneDrive, and others.
The default folders from a Windows 10 user account
This means that, in Windows 10, OneDrive stores your files at the following default location: “C:\Users\Your User Account\OneDrive.” If you want to store your files on another drive, partition, or folder, there’s no obvious way to change OneDrive’s default location. You might assume the location change works as it does for other user folders (read: How to change user folder locations in Windows 10 (Documents, Downloads, etc.), but that’s not true. However, you can do it fairly quickly by following the next steps:
How to change the location of OneDrive in Windows 10
On the right side of the taskbar, you should see OneDrive’s icon. It looks like a cloud. Click or tap on it. If you don’t see it there, press the small upward arrow from the system tray. You’re going to find OneDrive in the list of hidden icons.
The OneDrive icon from the taskbar
TIP: If you can’t find the OneDrive icon in the system tray, you can open the OneDrive app from the Start Menu. You find its shortcut in the list of apps starting with the letter O.
Opening OneDrive from the Windows 10 Start Menu
The previous action opens a pop-up window with details about OneDrive and the last actions it took on your Windows 10 PC. Click or tap on the Help & Settings button.
Help & Settings in the OneDrive window
This brings up a menu with various options - select Settings from it.
Opening the Settings for OneDrive
Next, Windows 10 shows you another window called Microsoft OneDrive. In it, select the Account tab, and then click or tap the “Unlink this PC” link.
Choosing to Unlink this PC from OneDrive
When OneDrive asks you if you’re sure that you want to unlink your PC, confirm the action by pressing the Unlink account button. This makes OneDrive stop syncing your files, and it’s a mandatory step if you want to move the OneDrive folder somewhere else.
Note that, after you confirm this change, you are prompted to log in or create a Microsoft account to use OneDrive on your Windows 10 PC. Ignore it for now, but leave the window open, as you need it later.
Unlink account from OneDrive
The next step is to move your OneDrive folder from its original location to the one where you want it to be. Open File Explorer and navigate to OneDrive’s current location. By default, that is “C:\Users\Your User Account\OneDrive.” Once you’ve found it, select the OneDrive folder and click or tap on the Move to button from the Home tab in the ribbon interface.
Move the OneDrive folder from its current location
In the Move to list of options, select “Choose location...”.
Select Choose location in File Explorer
Now browse through your Windows 10 PC and select the drive, partition, or folder where you want to move OneDrive. Once you get there, click or tap on the Move button. Then, wait for Windows 10 to move your OneDrive folder and all the files in it to the new location. Depending on the number and size of your files, this step might take a while.
Choosing where to move OneDrive on a Windows 10 PC
After Windows 10 finishes moving your OneDrive folder, you can close File Explorer.
Back to the OneDrive login window, which was left open, enter the email address associated with your Microsoft account. Then, click or tap on Sign in.
Entering the email address of your Microsoft account
Type your password and press Sign in, or use an alternative way of authentication, such as your Microsoft Authenticator app, to access your Microsoft account.
Authenticating to your Microsoft account
Then, OneDrive shows you where it intends to store your files. As you know by now, by default, that’s “C:\Users\Your User Account\OneDrive.” As you want to use a different location for your OneDrive, click or tap the “Change location” link.
Selecting to Change location for OneDrive
OneDrive now opens a File Explorer window called “Choose your OneDrive location.” Use it to browse through your Windows 10 PC and select the place where you moved your OneDrive folder earlier. Once you’ve done that, push the Select Folder button.
Browsing to the new OneDrive location
As OneDrive detects that “a OneDrive folder already exists on this PC,” you now have to confirm that you still intend to “Use this folder.”
Choosing to Use this folder for OneDrive
Now you should see that the location of OneDrive was changed according to your instructions. Click or tap Next to continue.
The location of OneDrive has been changed
Although the location of your OneDrive folder is now modified, there is still one thing left to configure. That’s to select whether you want to back up your Desktop, Documents, and Pictures folders to OneDrive. Once you’ve done that, click or tap on Continue.
Choosing what folders are backed up to OneDrive
Then, OneDrive shows you a few slides with some information about it and the benefits of upgrading to a paid plan if you’re using the free one. Go through the slides by clicking or tapping the Next button a few times, until you see the last one telling you that “Your OneDrive is ready for you.” Click or tap the “Open my OneDrive folder” and watch File Explorer launch and take you to your new OneDrive location.
OneDrive is ready
That was all: your OneDrive folder is now moved to where you wanted it to be.
Can I change my OneDrive folder name?
Some people asked us whether they can change the name of their OneDrive folders. Unfortunately, that’s not possible. We found some evidence on the internet that some managed to toy with it, using some registry hacks, but the results were not good and often caused more trouble than it was worth. However, if being able to change the OneDrive folder name is something you want, don’t hesitate to vote for this feature on OneDrive’s feedback page.
Why did you change your OneDrive folder location?
As you’ve seen, changing the location of the OneDrive folder is easy. There are a few steps you need to take, but they’re not complicated. However, it could have been even more straightforward, in our opinion, if Windows 10 provided an option for this purpose in the Settings app. In the end, why did you want to change your OneDrive’s location? Did you move it to another drive to keep it safe? Or did you need more free space on your Windows 10 partition? Let us know in the comments section.
