OneDrive - Storage full
Problem
This article outlines actions to take when OneDrive storage reaches full capacity.
Solution
Check your OneDrive storage status.
Clear files from your OneDrive Recycle Bin.
Delete some files OneDrive.
Old zipped files
Video recordings
PST/OST Outlook mail archives
Disable backup for some folders
OneDrive cloud icon > Gear icon > Settings
Sync and backup > Manage backup
Turn off backup for folders you don’t want in OneDrive (often Desktop is the big one)
Desktop gets huge because people drop installers, screenshots, and random downloads there.
Shared folders do not contribute to OneDrive storage.
