OneDrive 和Dropbox客户端使您可以轻松地在 PC 和云之间传输、备份和恢复文件。他们在后台完成他们的工作，并且由于他们使用互联网，他们分享您的带宽使用情况。

这应该不是问题。但是，OneDrive和Dropbox会消耗大量带宽。它会影响您的互联网速度，主要是在您使用缓慢或不太快的互联网连接时。好消息是您可以限制OneDrive和Dropbox使用的带宽。

如果您发现 OneDrive 或Dropbox应用程序占用了您的带宽，请按照本节中的指南了解如何限制使用量。限制这些应用程序的带宽使用的过程是相似的。

限制 OneDrive 带宽使用

打开 OneDrive 并转到设置^(Settings)。您也可以右键单击任务栏上的OneDrive图标，然后单击“设置”^(Settings)选项。您也可以转到 Settings and Help > Settings。

切换到 打开的新窗口的网络选项卡。^(Network)默认情况下，上传和下载速率设置为 不限制^{(Don’t limit)}。

对于上传^(Upload)速率和下载^(Download)速率，选择 限制为^{(Limit to)}选项并为您的首选最大带宽速率限制分配值。点击确定^(OK)按钮保存您的设置。

限制 Dropbox 带宽使用

Dropbox还允许您限制其带宽使用。要限制Dropbox客户端的带宽，请单击任务栏上的Dropbox图标以打开小窗口。

单击^(Click)齿轮形图标，然后 从下拉菜单中选择首选项。^{(Preferences)}

转到 Dropbox 首选项^{(Dropbox Preferences)}窗口中的带宽。^(Bandwidth)在这里，您会发现我们在上面的OneDrive^(OneDrive)解决方案中看到的相同设置。

在下载^(Download)速率和上传^(Upload)速率上设置限制为^{(Limit to)}选项。KB/s输入^(Enter)带宽值，然后单击 OK按钮。

直接配置Dropbox和OneDrive客户端使用的带宽。这些后台应用程序将不再在后台消耗大量带宽，并且在应用这些设置后，您会发现带宽使用量有所不同。

How to limit the bandwidth used by OneDrive and Dropbox

The OneDrivе and Droрbox clients make it easy to transfer, back uр, and restore files between your PC and the cloud. They do theіr jоbs in the background, and since they use the internet, they share in your bаndwidth usage.

This shouldn’t be a problem. However, OneDrive and Dropbox can consume a lot of bandwidth. It takes a toll on your internet speed, mainly if you use a slow or not-too-fast internet connection. The good news is that you can limit the bandwidth OneDrive and Dropbox use.

If you find out that your OneDrive or Dropbox app uses up your bandwidth, follow the guides in this section to learn how to limit the usage. The processes to limit the bandwidth usage of these apps are similar.

Limit OneDrive bandwidth usage

Open OneDrive and go to Settings. You can also right-click on the OneDrive icon on your taskbar and click on the Settings option. You can also go to Settings and Help > Settings.

Switch to the Network tab of the new window that opens. By default, the upload and download rates are set to Don’t limit.

For both the Upload rate and Download rate, select the Limit to option and assign values for your preferred maximum bandwidth rate limits. Hit the OK button to save your settings.

Limit Dropbox bandwidth usage

Dropbox also allows you to limit its bandwidth usage. To limit the Dropbox client’s bandwidth, click on the Dropbox icon on your taskbar to open the little window.

Click on the gear-shaped icon and select Preferences from the dropdown menu.

Go to Bandwidth in the Dropbox Preferences window. Here, you’ll find the same settings we saw in the OneDrive solution above.

Set the Limit to option on Download rate and Upload rate. Enter values for the bandwidth in KB/s and click the OK button.

Configuring the bandwidth that the Dropbox and OneDrive clients use it straightforward. These background apps would no longer consume the bulk of your bandwidth in the background, and you’ll notice a difference in your bandwidth usage after applying these settings.
