Backing up your files

Dear panicked colleagues,
                If you want to back up your files in an efficient way simply drag things into your Synced OneDrive (on Windows explorer).  They will then be backed up online if…oh I don’t know…your computer blows up.  If you’d still like to have some of those files accessible on your desktop, simple right click the file(or folder)à”Send to”àDesktop (create a shortcut).  This gives you a way to access that same file that is in OneDrive without having to go anywhere.  The pictures below can assist you with this.

IF you are one of the handful of people who have not had OneDrive synced, you will probably want to get that done “just incase”, because backing up your files is why I want everyone to sync.  I’m available afterschool today in 407 during my “workshop” to help any OneDrive syncing or file management questions.

I will also be hunting down asking to meet with those who I don’t have marked as synced in the next month or so.  At the end of this email is a list of people who I have down as synced. If you are not on the list because I just forgot to mark you down after meeting with you, just let me know (I’m still learning how to manage dataJ).





(The blue arrow indicates that this icon is a SHORTCUT, not the file itself…so if you delete it the files will not be deleted, only the shortcut)

These are the people who I have marked down as CURRENTLY SYNCED:
