Alternatively, right-click the file or folder you wish to back up and click “Copy” from the context menu. Open the OneDrive folder again, right-click an empty space, and select “Paste” from the context menu. Depending on the size of the folder you have selected to copy, the creation and/or transfer of the file or folder should begin. If for any reason you need to know the direct file path to the local user’s OneDrive folder, it is “%userprofile%\OneDrive” or “C:\Users%username%\OneDrive. ”
You can upload as many files you want at the same time.
Most of the time, depending on the size of the folder, these uploads can take more time. You have now backed up the file or folder.
If you don’t have the OneDrive app yet, you can download it for free from Google Play for Android, and from the App Store for iOS.
Once you’ve logged in, you can now exit OneDrive.
When you find the file or folder, press and hold it and select “Share” from the list that appears. Please note that not all file management apps are created equal, and some may not offer every sharing feature.
The OneDrive screen will disappear, but there will be a cloud icon on your notification panel signifying that an upload is in progress. Slide down the notification panel and you will see that it says “Uploading,” and under are the number of files being uploaded and how many are left. You’ve now backed up your files/folder on your mobile device.
