By setting all of the computers up the same way, they are all actually working off of the exact same data in OneDrive. I also find this invaluable because I use multiple computers at once depending on where I am and what I am doing. Once you point the location of the system folders to your OneDrive versions, all of your files will magically appear, and you are back in business. You won’t-or shouldn’t-need to transfer or copy data from the local drives because it is a new PC with no data on it yet.

Just log in and you’re all set.īut, what about your data? Well, now that you have been using OneDrive by default, just go into the system folders on the new Windows 10 PC and follow the steps from before. Windows 10 allows you to sync a variety of settings, such as language preferences, passwords, color themes, and even File Explorer settings, and notification preferences, so you don’t have to start from scratch and configure everything again. Microsoft has already streamlined much of the process from the user profile and preferences side.
The real magic happens when you set up a new Windows PC. When you transfer photos of your kid’s birthday party to Pictures on your Windows PC, you are actually storing them safely and securely in the cloud in the Pictures folder in OneDrive. Voila! Now, when you view the files on your Windows desktop, you are actually seeing the files from the Desktop folder in OneDrive.
