在 Windows 10 上开始使用 Microsoft OneDrive: (Get Started With Microsoft OneDrive on Windows 10: )我们都知道,在计算机、手机、平板电脑等数字设备进入市场之前,所有数据都是手动处理的,所有记录都是手写在寄存器、文件等中的。每天都会产生大量数据的银行、商店、医院等(因为这些地方每天都有很多人访问,维护记录很重要)所有数据都是手动维护的,由于海量的数据量大,需要维护的文件很多。这造成了很多问题,例如:
- 需要维护大量文件,因此占用大量空间。
- 由于需要购买新的文件或寄存器,费用急剧增加。
- 如果需要任何数据,则必须手动搜索所有文件,这非常耗时。
- 由于数据保存在文件或注册表中,因此丢失或损坏数据的可能性会增加。
- 由于任何有权访问建筑物的人都可以访问该数据,因此也缺乏安全性。
- 由于有大量文件可用,因此很难进行任何更改。
随着数字设备的引入,上述所有问题要么被消除,要么得到解决,因为电话、计算机等数字设备提供了存储和保存数据的设施。虽然有一些限制,但这些设备仍然提供了很多帮助,并且使处理所有数据变得非常容易和方便。
由于所有数据现在都可以存储在一个地方,即一台计算机或手机中,因此它不占用任何物理空间。所有数字设备都具有安全功能,因此所有数据都是安全的。作为数据的备份,不可能放错任何文件。对现有数据进行任何新的更改都非常方便,因为所有文件都存储在一个地方,即一台设备。
但是,正如我们所知,在这个世界上没有什么是理想的。数字设备可能会随着时间的推移而损坏,或者随着使用它们开始磨损。现在一旦发生这种情况,那么您应该问自己,存储在该设备下的所有数据会发生什么?此外,如果有人或您错误地格式化了您的设备,那么所有数据也会丢失。在这种情况下,您应该使用OneDrive将您的数据备份到云端。
为了解决上述问题, 微软(Microsoft)推出了一项新的存储服务,您可以在其中保存所有数据而不必担心损坏设备,因为数据存储在云本身而不是设备上。因此,即使您的设备损坏,数据也将始终保持安全,您可以在另一台设备的帮助下随时随地访问云上的数据。Microsoft提供的这种存储服务称为OneDrive。
OneDrive:OneDrive是一种在线云存储服务,随您的Microsoft 帐户(Microsoft Account)一起提供。它允许您将文件存储在云上,以后您可以随时随地在您的设备(如计算机、手机、平板电脑等)上访问这些文件。最好的部分是,您可以轻松地将任何文件或文件夹发送到其他人直接来自云端。
OneDrive 的核心功能(Core features of OneDrive)
- 作为免费用户,您最多可以在 OneDrive 帐户上存储 5GB 数据。
- 它提供跨平台同步,这意味着您可以从计算机以及手机或其他设备访问您正在处理的同一文件。
- 它还提供智能搜索功能。
- 它保留文件历史记录,这意味着如果您对文件进行了任何更改,现在您想撤消它们,您可以轻松地做到这一点。

How to Use OneDrive: Getting Started with Microsoft OneDrive
Get Started With Microsoft OneDrive on Windows 10: We all know, before the digital devices like computers, phones, tablets, etc came into the market, all the data was handled manually and all the records were handwritten in registers, files, etc. In banks, stores, hospitals, etc. where a huge amount of data is created every day (as these are the places where lots of people visit every day and it is important to maintain their records) all the data was maintained manually and due to huge amount of data, lots of files need to be maintained. This created a lot of problems like:
- A large number of files need to be maintained so it occupies lots of space.
- As new files or registers need to be purchased, expenses increase drastically.
- If any data is required, then all the files have to be searched manually which is very time-consuming.
- As data is maintained in files or registries, chances of misplacing or damaging data increases.
- There is also a lack of security as any person with access to the building can access that data.
- As a large number of files are available so, it is very difficult to make any changes.
With the introduction of digital devices, all the above problems were either eliminated or solved as digital devices like phones, computers, etc. provide with the facility to store and save data. Although, there are some limitations, but still these devices provide a lot of help and made it very easy & convenient to handle all the data.
As all the data can now be stored in one place i.e. in one computer or phone, so it doesn’t occupy any physical space. All the digital devices come with security features so all the data is safe & secured. No chance of misplacing any files as a backup of the data can be made. Making any new changes in the existing data is very convenient as all the files are stored at one place i.e. one device.
But, as we know nothing is ideal in this world. The digital devices can be damaged over time or with their use they start to wear out. Now once that happens, then you should ask yourself that what will happen to all the data stored under that device? Also, what if somebody or you format your device by mistake, then also all the data will get lost. In scenarios like this, you should use OneDrive to backup your data on the cloud.
To solve the above issues, Microsoft introduced a new storage service where you can save all your data without worrying about damaging the device because the data is stored on the cloud itself rather than the device. So even if your device gets damaged then also the data will always remain safe and you can access your data anytime & anywhere on the cloud with the help of another device. This storage service by Microsoft is called OneDrive.
OneDrive: OneDrive is an online cloud storage service that comes attached with your Microsoft Account. It allows you to store your files on the cloud and later on you can access these files anywhere & anytime you want on your devices such as a computer, phone, tablet, etc. The best part, you could easily send any files or folders to other people directly from the cloud.
Core features of OneDrive
- As a free user, you can store up to 5GB data on your OneDrive Account.
- It provides cross-platform sync which means you can access the same file you are working on from your computer as well as from your phone or other devices.
- It also provides Intelligent search feature.
- It keeps file history which means if you made any changes in files and now you want to undo them you can do it easily.
Now the question arises, how to use OneDrive. So, let’s see step by step how to use OneDrive.
How to Use OneDrive: Getting Started with Microsoft OneDrive
Make sure to create a restore point just in case something goes wrong.
Method 1 – How To Create a OneDrive Account
Before we start using OneDrive, we should create a OneDrive account. If you already have any account whose email address is like @outlook.com or @hotmail.com or have a Skype account, it means you already have a Microsoft account and you can skip this step and sign in using that account. But if you do not have one then create one using the below steps:
1.Visit OneDrive.com using web browser.
2.Click on Sign up for free button.
3.Click on Create a Microsoft account button.
4.Enter an email address for a new Microsoft account and click on Next.
5.Enter the password for your new Microsoft account and click Next.
6.Enter the verification code you will receive on your registered email address and click Next.
7.Enter the characters you will see to verify the Captcha and click Next.
8.Your OneDrive account will be created.
After completing all the above steps, you can start using OneDrive.
Method 2 – How to set up OneDrive on Windows 10
Before using OneDrive, OneDrive should be available on your device and should be ready to use. So, to set up OneDrive in Windows 10 follow below steps:
1.Open start, search for OneDrive using the search bar and hit the enter button on Keyboard.
Note: If you do not find OneDrive on searching, it means you do not have OneDrive installed on your computer. So, download OneDrive from Microsoft, unzip it and double click on the file to install it.
2.Enter your Microsoft email address which you have created above and click on Sign in.
3.Enter the password of your Microsoft account and click on Sign in.
Note: If you forget your password, you can reset it by clicking on “Forgot your password”.
4.Click on the Next button.
Note: If one OneDrive folder already exists then it is safe to change the location of the OneDrive folder so that later on it will not create any problem of file synchronization.
5.Click on Not now if you are using the free version of OneDrive.
6.Go through the given tips and finally click on Open my OneDrive folder.
7.Your OneDrive folder will open up from your computer.

3.Drag & drop or copy & paste the files or folders from your PC into the OneDrive folder.
4.After completing the above steps, your files will be available on your OneDrive folder and they will automatically sync to your account by the OneDrive client in the background.
Note: Instead of first saving your file into your computer and then relocating it into OneDrive folder, you can also directly save your file into OneDrive folder. It will save you both time and memory.
Method 4 – How To Choose Which Folders To Sync From OneDrive
As your data on the OneDrive account grow, it would be difficult to manage all the files & folders on your OneDrive folder inside the File Explorer. So to avoid this issue, you can always specify which files or folders from your OneDrive account should be accessible from your computer.

2.Click on three dotted icon (More).
3.Now from the More menu click on Settings.

7.Once you are done, review your changes and click OK.
8.Click OK again to save changes.
Once you have completed the above steps, only the files or folders which you check marked above will be visible on your OneDrive folder. You can anytime change which files or folders you want to see under OneDrive folder under File Explorer.
Note: If you again want to make all files visible, then check the box “Make all files available”, which you have unchecked before and then click OK.
Method 5 – Understand the Status of OneDrive Files which are Syncing
Lots of data is saved on OneDrive, so it is very important to keep track of files or folder which are syncing the cloud. And the most important thing is verifying that the files or folders are syncing properly on the cloud. You should know how to differentiate between which files have already synced on the Cloud, which are still syncing, and which are still not synced. It is very easy to check all this information with OneDrive. OneDrive provides several badges to keep users updated about the status of files syncing.
Given below are some of those badges.
-
Solid white cloud icon: Solid white cloud icon available at the bottom left corner indicates that OneDrive is running properly and OneDrive is up to date.
-
Solid Blue Cloud icon: Solid blue cloud icon available at bottom right corner indicates that OneDrive for business is running properly without any problem and is up to date.

Cloud with red X icon: This symbol indicates that OneDrive is running but there are some problems in synchronization which needs to be fixed.
Icons showing statuses of files and folders
- White cloud with blue border: It indicates that file is not available on local storage and you cannot open it offline. It will only open when you will be connected to the Internet.
-
Solid green with a white check inside: It indicates that file is marked as “Always keep on this device” so that important file will be available offline and you can access it whenever you want.
