Hi, I have recently bought a new drive for random videos that I have, and because my old drive couldn't hold them (I will still use old drive I just want the new one for videos). So I have had all of my videos on OneDrive because I didn't have enough storage, so I put the videos onto the new drive chunk by chunk, but for some reason, I have a full folders downloaded and on my old drive, but it refuses to copy onto the new drive:

I have all of the that folder downloaded and on the old drive, but it still won't copy onto the new drive, even when I have space (1 TB). PLEASE HELP
This is on a Windows 10 system.

    Hi,
    Have you tried to turn off Onedrive to check?
    Down in your system tray (bottom right corner of the task bar) you should see the OneDrive icon. Click on the icon, click the "Three Dot" menu and choose settings. On the Account tab, there is an option to "Unlink this PC" .
    Then reboot try to move again.
    Also have you reformat the new Drive and is it a NTFS drive?
    Hope this helps and please help to accept as Answer if the response is useful.
    Best Regards,
    Carl
