Being able to create an iso of the C-drive is probably important too. I would prefer a backup solution that backs up the files without compression or proprietary unlocking software so my files are exactly like those on my computer. I think on the current version you have to get the paid updates yearly or you lose access to your backups. At one point, on one of my computers, my computer would hang when shutting down until I uninstalled Acronis. It frequently failed when attempting to back up automatically. I had been using Acronis True Image, but I'm not totally happy with it. You can also use the OneDrive mobile app to access your folders on any device.I am using an external dock with bare hard drives and will continue to do so, though I'm not against having a cloud back-up in addition to the hard drive backup. If you're signed in to the OneDrive sync app on your computer, you can use Finder to access your OneDrive. You can also use the OneDrive mobile app to access your folders on any device. If you're signed in to the OneDrive sync app on your computer, you can use File Explorer to access your OneDrive. When you back up your Desktop folder, the items on your desktop roam with you to your other desktops where you're running OneDrive. When your files finish syncing to OneDrive, they're backed up and you can access them from anywhere in Documents, or Desktop. To move the files, select Where are my files to open the folder in OneDrive, then select the files that you want to move to your device folder, and drag them to that location.Īccess your backed up folders on any device Note that any new files you add to that folder on your device won't be backed up by OneDrive after you stop the backup. If you want those files back in your device folder and not in OneDrive, move them manually from the OneDrive folder back to your device folder. To access your files, select the icon to open the folder in OneDrive. In the folder that you stopped backing up, you’ll see an icon titled Where are my files that’s a shortcut to your folders in OneDrive. When you stop backing up a folder, the files that were already backed up by OneDrive stay in the OneDrive folder, and will no longer appear in your device folder.
