INTRODUCTION TO MICROSOFT
ONEDRIVE
Microsoft OneDrive provides a cloud-based storage solution for your files
or records. It is an online file storage platform used by individuals and
business groups to save share and retrieve files from a cloud server.
OneDrive for Business allows you to store and access files that are peculiar
to your business. OneDrive is like your own online personal storage space
that stores all your private and business files which you are not ready to
share with others at the moment or that need some modification before you
can share them. It is a simplified cloud-based storage library that you are
the owner of and has full access to. OneDrive comes with two features:
OneDrive and OneDrive for Business.
OneDrive for Business enables users to securely share files and
information, and control the levels of security via express access or links for
editing or viewing organized files. This can also be done at the folder level
within OneDrive to enable access to a set of files or folders within
OneDrive for business. OneDrive for Business is the best cloud storage
option you can opt for if you are looking for the best options for saving
your files or data for your business and enterprise.
The Basics of Microsoft OneDrive
They are the basic information you need to know to get started with
OneDrive which aids a smooth operation or smooth use of Microsoft
OneDrive. The following are the basics of OneDrive that must be put into
consideration. They are the basic things every user of OneDrive must
acquaint themselves with to make the most of Microsoft OneDrive. They
are the fundamental features or functions available to OneDrive users that
you can see below.

Definition of OneDrive
OneDrive is defined as a cloud storage service that Microsoft offers to store
all your files securely in one place (cloud server), which you can access
almost anywhere. OneDrive is a platform for storing, sharing, and editing
files on the cloud that is the Internet. Because files are stored on the
Internet, they can be accessed from any computer with internet access, and
the files stored on them are not lost if your computer crashes or gets stolen.
Files can also be shared so that other people can view and edit them for
whichever purpose you shared them.
You can create a file on one device and continue where you left off on
another laptop, desktop computer, tablet, or phone without having to
transfer anything to an external drive or email it to yourself or a second
party, it doesn’t only creates extra steps but also duplicate several
unnecessary copies of your files. OneDrive also makes it easy to share
content with other people and work corporately with others on a real-time
basis using the Microsoft 365 integration.
The users with Windows 10 devices are even more privileged to get more
features than users with other versions of the operating system. When
setting up this service with a Microsoft account on your computer, you have
the opportunity to also sync and roam your system preferences and many
other features. Files On-Demand is also another promising feature on
OneDrive that allows you to access all your files without downloading them
to your device, saving you a lot of local storage space, especially your
device storage. And because the data is stored in the cloud, you can use it as
a data recovery tool if the computer breaks down or is stolen. OneDrive for
me is one of the many promising tools you need to secure your files or data.

Benefits of Microsoft OneDrive

The sure benefit of Microsoft OneDrive is having a well-secured personal
and private cloud-based folder to house or store everything you need to
store for the feature, which you can access from any device anywhere with
internet access. But much more than that, you can set your sharing and
editing rights at either folder or document level, which means you can start
collaborating with friends and colleagues either inside or outside your
organization. In a General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) circle, you
can also stop attaching documents to emails with every risk that poses a
trait to your documents, and simply work on cloud shared files for file
security.
These are several many benefits of Microsoft OneDrive, which include:
1. A well-structured platform for files and folders and other documents.
2. Make files available from anywhere for collaboration on any device
with internet access.
3. Provides the opportunity to free-up device storage when there is a
need for that.
4. Offer unlimited file access at any time and on any device.
5. Allows shareable content across business groups and teams, either
large or small content documents.
6. Provides customizable sync experience for Admin users.
7. Securely store files and information without the fear of losing them.
8. It also provides support for multimedia files.
9. It’s securely integrated with other Microsoft products including
Microsoft 365.

Comparison between OneDrive and SharePoint

SharePoint and OneDrive are both cloud-based storage solutions tools
developed to store, share and synchronize files across different platforms or
devices. But which one should you use? Consider the comparison below
and choose wisely.
OneDrive is a cloud-based storage solution for your files. It is an online tool
for document and file storage platforms usually used by individuals and
business teams to store, share and retrieve files in a centralized virtual
location. OneDrive for Business allows you to store and access files that are
private to you. OneDrive is like your own personal space that stores all your
files that you’re either ready to share or not yet ready to share with others
which requires some work before you can share them. It is a simplified and
cloud-based document library that you have complete ownership of and full
access to. While
SharePoint is mainly for collaboration. It provides a means of collaboration
between organizations and employees via an internal website that can be
accessed from any computer or mobile phone. SharePoint can also store,
manage, and distribute files to users with different access levels and
permissions. SharePoint is highly customizable. It comes with apps that
enable you to quickly add capabilities, and an app store with tools for
integration outside of Microsoft, it also provides web design tools to create
websites, and the ability to allocate or adapt each site to specific users.
The table below highlight some comparison between the two which will
give you more clarity and a premise to judge between them.

Storage subscriptions. storage capacity.
Difference between OneDrive and SharePoint
Both OneDrive and SharePoint are powerful cloud-based storage and
collaboration solutions that you can perfectly utilize combining them for
your file storage. SharePoint is Microsoft’s predefined workspace and
collaborative platform used by organizations for a variety of purposes, from
storing files and managing documents to creating online platforms with a
dashboard, and much more. SharePoint has more advanced capabilities
above and beyond those offered by Microsoft OneDrive but is more
complex to use, which, on the other hand, is your personal online storage
space where you can store all your private files securely. SharePoint,
however, undoubtedly excels when it comes to communicating and
collaborating within and outside the organization.
OneDrive on the other hand is a platform for storing, sharing, and editing
files on the cloud that is the Internet. Because files are stored on the
Internet, they can be accessed from any computer with internet access, and
the files stored on them are not lost if your computer crashes or gets stolen.
Files can also be shared so that other people can view and edit them for
whichever purpose you shared them.
You can create a file on one device and continue where you left off on
another laptop, desktop computer, tablet, or phone without having to
transfer anything to a USB flash drive or email it to yourself, it doesn’t only
creates extra steps but also duplicate several unnecessary copies of your
files. OneDrive is easier to relate with than SharePoint. The caption below
shows some other differences between them.
Comparison between Google Drive and OneDrive
The comparison between Google Drive and OneDrive is discussed under
the following distinctions;
1. File-Sharing: Under file sharing, Google Drive has the same file-
sharing system as Microsoft OneDrive. If you are using a mobile
device, you just need to click on the file and share it with your
desired cloud storage platform. However, Google Drive does not
have options for the following; link passwords, set expiration dates,
or download limit, so Google Drive's file-sharing capacities are a bit
lower or weaker in comparing them.
2. Mobile File Backup: When using Google Drive, you can back up
your contact list and calendar events as well as media files.
Compared to Google Drive, OneDrive has some limitations as you
can only back up media files on your mobile phones, such as videos
and photos.
3. File Synchronization: Both Google Drive and OneDrive have a file
sync feature that makes it easy to sync files on both clouds, and they
are both easily easy to use. If sync speed is paramount to you, then,
it’s commended that you use OneDrive as your cloud storage.
Because it uses a level of file sync technology to break down files
 into simpler and smaller packages. Then it uploads not the entire file,
but breakdown the files for easier navigation. So, it makes the
uploading process much faster. Google Drive, on the other hand, will
be a little bit lesser. In most cases the sync speeds of Google Drive
and OneDrive are pretty much comparable, so it's fine to choose
either one as a cloud storage server.
4. Result of Comparison: Comparing the price, storage space, security,
and file management of Google Drive vs OneDrive, we can find that
Google Drive and OneDrive seem to have the same functions, but the
key fields involved in each are different, so the targeted user groups
are also different. Individuals who have requirements for price,
storage space, security, file synchronization, and speed of uploading
can choose OneDrive for easy navigation.

 CHAPTER TWO
BASIC OPERATIONS ON ONEDRIVE
They are the basic features or functions that are available for the users to
carry out tasks that are available within Microsoft OneDrive jurisdiction.
The following are the basic operations of OneDrive:
Create a file, Copy a file, Delete a file, Download a file, Get a file, Rename
a file, Search a file, share a file, Upload a file, Create a folder, Delete a
folder, Rename a folder, Share a folder, Search a folder, and Get Children
that is, to get items inside a folder, etc.
The Cloud Storage
Cloud storage is said to be a centralized storage platform or a virtual storage
space where files and other documents are stored. They are built with
functions that allow the saving of data to a virtual storage system not found
on your electronic device but over the internet. Cloud storage uses a coded
memory algorithm that allows users to store files or data on servers from
different locations in a way that is apparent to them.
Cloud storage provides a certain amount of storage space for data by default
when you register on any of them. It keeps track of the amount of data
stored and provides a simple interface to manage files or data stored on
them. Often this involves creating a special folder on your computer and
supervising the storage activities that go on, on it. OneDrive, Dropbox, and
Google Docs for Google Drive belong to this group of cloud storage. The
caption below defines the contents of cloud storage.
Getting Additional Space in Microsoft OneDrive
When you sign up for OneDrive, 15 GB of storage space will be
automatically allocated to you for storage. This storage provision will be
available from the start and this can be increased in many ways at any time.
Take, for instance, Microsoft might provide you with some free space when
you subscribe for it or download one of their products or services, or simply
by using some of the make-ups, functions, or features of OneDrive. When
you build up your free OneDrive space you might end up with
approximately 1285 GB of storage space. Below are some of the ways you
can increase your storage space with illustrations that can guide you
towards getting more free OneDrive space.
1. Free Space for Being Loyal: Recently increasing your storage space
is made available by Microsoft OneDrive’s free plan, before now, it
was about 7 GB and now it has been increased to 15 GB.
Nevertheless, the users who have been subscribed to OneDrive since
it was given the name; Windows Live SkyDrive, now possess 25GB
of free storage space allocated to their accounts. And while the
change of their brand name took place the free storage space
allocation was reduced to 15 GB along with some other modifications
in their features. Nevertheless, Microsoft rewarded its then existing
users with a 10 GB Loyalty bonus. Adding together both the loyalty
 bonus space with the normal 15 GB storage space, it yet again sums
up to 25 GB, so ultimately there was nothing to lose. You can check
this loyalty additional storage bonus in your account settings as
shown.

2. Office 365 Subscription: This is a feature with quite a great deal of

tasks free. All you need to do is to subscribe to Microsoft's Office
365, and you will be assigned one terabyte of free OneDrive storage
space. This is about 1024 GB which instantly adds up to your
OneDrive existing storage space. You can check this storage space
after subscription from your additional storage option in settings as
shown in the caption below.
 3. Surface bonus: This is another way to get more OneDrive storage
space through the surface bonus. Anytime a Microsoft Surface device
is purchased by the user, he or she becomes eligible to receive 200
GB of free OneDrive storage space which can last for two years. For
Surface's value or price percentage, this would be a nice add-up
storage space. A very paramount thing to keep to mind while looking
out for the surface bonus is that even if you buy more than one
device, Surface devices will not add space to your OneDrive account,
but rather increase the duration of your storage space.
Note: Owning two Surface devices will not offer you 400 GB for two years,
but rather provide 200 GB for four years.
4. Enthusiast bonus: This bonus is a flexible kind of bonus and you
can receive this for performing multiple tasks. For example, you can
receive this free OneDrive storage space if you own or buy a
Windows mobile device, sign up for Microsoft services or products,
when register as a beta tester for Microsoft Office, or even if you sign
up for the Bing Rewards. Aside from this, Microsoft also keeps
organizing time-limited campaign adverts for the OneDrive users,
and in return offers free storage space. You can follow their Blog to
make sure you do not miss the next campaign. Be up to date with
OneDrive Blog.
 5. OneDrive Referral bonus: This feature is reasonably common and
quite known. Microsoft, with its generosity, gives 500MB of free
OneDrive storage space for every person that you refer. Either a
friend, family or colleague. The maximum number of referrals can be
10 people who sign up and starts using OneDrive. This indicates that
you merit a maximum of 5 GB of additional free OneDrive storage
space to save your files or documents. All you need to do is to copy
your referral link and share it on any of the social networking
platforms you belong to or want. To get this done, go to your
OneDrive storage page and simply click on Get free storage and
complete the task to earn.

OneDrive for Business option just like the normal OneDrive.
How to Get Started with OneDrive for Business
To get started with Microsoft OneDrive, you must note that there are three
ways you can gain access to the OneDrive files and folders of active users
when necessary through the following:
1. Via the Microsoft 365 Admin Center.
2. Via the SharePoint Online Admin Center.
3. Using PowerShell platform.
To get started with OneDrive for business these are the things you must
consider:
1. Review basic OneDrive information: Start by reviewing the
introductory OneDrive information available about OneDrive for
business. You'll get answers to many of your questions, including the
OneDrive experience and how it works.
2. Set up a Microsoft Office 365 subscription: You must set up a
subscription plan to use in OneDrive for business.
3. Add OneDrive licenses: Review your plan options to make the
comparison, and then add the licenses you need.
You can now plan, deploy, and configure the OneDrive sync app and
applications. To do that, closely follow these three steps below:
 1. Plan for adoption: For small businesses adoption plan is very
important. Oftentimes, small business customers don't consider this
step for application, and that can negatively affect your success.
2. Install and configure: The next thing to consider is the installation
and configuration of OneDrive. OneDrive installation is compatible
across Windows, macOS, and mobile devices, and it’s important to
picture devices that are the best fit for your business operations.
3. Manage OneDrive: For many small businesses, managing OneDrive
is optional but it’s important for advanced features. You could simply
install and configure OneDrive and leave it there, but if you want to
use advanced features of OneDrive or add device sharing or access
restrictions, however, you can easily manage those and other settings
in the SharePoint admin center. When the above procedures are
carefully studied, then you are set to get started on OneDrive for
business.

OneDrive Features for Small Businesses

1. OneDrive Files On-Demand: OneDrive Files On-Demand allow
users to view, search for, and interact with files stored in OneDrive
from within File Explorer, without downloading the files to their
device. Files that have not been downloaded have a cloud icon for
their status. For those files that have been downloaded, the status
shows a green checkmark. See the screenshot below.
OneDrive Files On-Demand usually come by default, but if it is not, you
can enable it with the following steps:
1. Click the OneDrive.
2. Click the Help & Settings menu.
3. Select the Settings option.
4. Click the Settings tab.
5. Under the Files On-Demand section, check the Save space and
download files as you use them, option.
 6. Then click the OK button.
Note: In the same way, if the feature is not for you, then clear the option to
disable it. Once you complete the steps, OneDrive Files On-Demand will be
activated on your device.
2. OneDrive Modern attachments: OneDrive integrates with
Microsoft Outlook to enable easy sharing of OneDrive files that
appear just like email attachments. This feature provides a good
sharing experience but centralizes the storage for attachments in
OneDrive. This allows your users to all collaborate on the same file
instead of sending different versions back and forth in email. You can
also configure sharing permissions on the files directly from within
the Outlook client. See the screenshot below.
3. OneDrive Files Restore: The OneDrive Files Restore feature allows
users to restore files that are once deleted over the past 30 days. To
select the desired recovery time, OneDrive presents you with a
histogram that shows file activity so that you can determine which
recovered time meets your needs. You can simply select the file
history entry to which you want to restore. See the screenshot below.
 4. Recycle bin: OneDrive has a recycle bin just like the one on your
Windows desktop. Deleted files are moved to the recycle bin and kept
for some time before being permanently deleted. For work or school
accounts, deleted files are permanently deleted after 93 days unless
configured otherwise.
Adopting OneDrive for Business
Adopting OneDrive for businesses is a very important thing to consider as it
plays a vital role in the organization. Ranging from business file storage for
safety purposes to advertisement through sharing of links with clients or
business groups and organizations. OneDrive adoption can be as simple as
familiarizing oneself with OneDrive and its features. This adoption starts
from the installation of OneDrive to knowing what it has to offer and how it
can promote your business both in storing your business files,
advertisement, and communication. Linking employers and employees
together for the effective running of your business. The primary value
suggestion for businesses is file availability and freedom from data
repetition. Files saved on local storage can be lost with a device but those
saved to OneDrive cannot.
The Key OneDrive Structures for Small Scale
Businesses
The key items to consider in creating a OneDrive folder or file structure for
small scale businesses are as follows:
1. Create Folders Based on Projects or Tasks: You must learn to
structure folders and files in a way that will be consistent and
identifiable when you are searching for them. So that when you need
a particular folder or file you know where you can find them for easy
navigation. See the screenshot below.

2. Create Sub-Folders for Each Task under the Main Task Folder:
Under each main folder, you can create a subset of folders related to
that main task. In the folder Webinars, we have subfolders for easy
identification. See the screenshot below.
See also the folder structure below having each a sub-folder within
them:

3. Optimize for Search and Sharing: Once you’ve optimized your

OneDrive for file organization and begin storing your files there, you
also get the benefit of sharing and collaborating from the cloud. It’s
 as easy as using the Share tab in the upper right-hand corner of your
window. See the screenshot below.

Note: Instead of having to constantly go back and forth in emails, all you
have to do is share the document, and allow editing permissions, afterward
you and your co-worker can do live editing together.

The Known Folder Move

With the Known Folder Move (KFM) feature, we give users the ability to
synchronize the data (files and folders) stored within the user's Desktop,
Documents, and Pictures folders, including the Screenshots and Camera
Roll folders.
Note: This feature is only available for Windows 10, Windows 8, Windows
8.1, and Windows 7.

to recover all the files in the Recycle bin. That’s all.
