If you’re someone who has lots of important files stored in their laptops then you might have considered using a cloud storage as a backup. While there are many 3rd party alternatives available, Microsoft’s OneDrive is pretty good as well.

If you have considered using OneDrive to backup your precious data then Microsoft might have a solution for you. Starting Fall Creators Update, Microsoft has allowed users to select if they want their Docs, and Pictures to be stored OneDrive. For this to work, you need to check out the guide below:

  1. Click on the OneDrive in the notification area.
  2. Click on the menu button in the top-right corner.
  3. Go to Settings>Auto Save
  4. Select OneDrive for “Desktop,” “Documents,” and “Pictures.”
  5. Click Okay and you’re set.

This guide will ensure that all the documents, pictures, and the desktop files are directly synced to your OneDrive. We hope this tutorial was helpful for you. If you have any doubts or suggestions, do let us know in the comments section below.
