Back up my Desktop and Documents to OneDrive
Known Folder Move redirects your Desktop, Documents and Pictures into OneDrive so they’re backed up and on every device. Often it’s already on.
- Click the OneDrive cloud icon in the system tray, then the gear → Settings.
- Open the Sync and backup section and choose Manage backup.
- Tick Desktop, Documents and Pictures, then Save changes (or Start backup).
- Wait for the initial sync to finish — a green tick means it’s protected.
- Your files now appear in OneDrive online and on your other devices.
- To check or change it later, return to Manage backup; if options are greyed out, whedo.it may manage this centrally.
Still stuck after those?
You’ve done the right thing by trying. Send whedo.it a quick note — what you tried, what you saw — and a senior pair of eyes will be on it the same business day.
