Hi,

I need help on changing my HP Microsoft window's notebook storage area from OneDrive to the pc's own storage.  My OneDrive is full so I can't even do updates.  Thank you.

You can

 

1. Move/download all files from OneDrive to your local drive first

2. Then unlink OneDrive

Hi again,

 

Thank you so much for your help.  I wasn't able to go to the link you provided as I guess since I can't do any updates, that they think my computer may be more susceptible to viruses, etc, even though I have a virus protector.  I did click on something that may be proving to be useful, at least I hope so. I have a tab open that says .... Getting started with OneDrive....  I hope I can learn something useful there. I think that the remedy is right there in front of me. I have to be more patient.  Though I have spent much time trying to figure this out. There is a keystroke that will work, I just have to figure out what it is. Maybe I can go to that website you sent me via my phone.  I'll have to see if I can read the entire address.  Thanks again for your help.  🙂   I sure could use it.

Hi Banhien,

I wanted to say thank you for your help.  I didn't know how to do the KUDOS thumb up to say thanks though.  So I am writing a reply instead.  I hope to work on this issue more tonight. I feel the answer is right in front of me.  haha....  I'll keep working on it 🙂

Hello again Banhien, and everyone,

I think I am getting somewhere, hopefully.  I clicked and dragged my pictures in OneDrive and took them over to a folder in my computer. I hope it works. I forget exactly which destination folder I hovered over and landed on, but it is moving my pictures now. It says it will take about a day to send them all over. We shall see what happens, eh?  This is interesting.  It says 98.6 GBs left.  

Thank you, Coleen
