trying to setup onedrive on my desktop (WIN10) but the system seems to insist in a lengthy description of the issue before answering.

Answer 1

Hi! Let me help you with this issue.

May I know if you are getting any errors with OneDrive?

Normally, you would install it and login with your Microsoft account, and it will let you choose the folders you want to get synced.

Answer 2

To set up OneDrive on your Windows 10 desktop and pin it to the taskbar, follow these steps:

1. Install OneDrive: If you haven't already installed OneDrive, you can do so by checking for updates in Windows. Go to Start, type updates, and select Check for updates. Install any available updates, and then open the Run dialog by pressing the Windows logo key + R. Type %localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\update and press OK. Double-click OneDriveSetup.exe to install the latest version.
2. Open OneDrive: After installation, you can find OneDrive by searching for it in the Start menu. Click on the OneDrive cloud icon to launch it.
3. Set up OneDrive: Follow the prompts to sign in with your Microsoft account and set up your OneDrive folder.
4. Pin OneDrive to the Taskbar: Once OneDrive is running, right-click the OneDrive cloud icon in the taskbar and select Pin to taskbar. This will allow you to access OneDrive quickly from your taskbar in the future.

If you encounter any issues during the setup, such as error code 0x80070005, it may be due to OneDrive not being updated or a Group Policy setting that prevents setup. You can refer to troubleshooting steps for resolving such issues if needed.
