  • Identify what's taking up space on OneDrive: Go to your OneDrive account and view the Files tab. Sort the files by size to see what's taking up the most space. You can then choose to delete, move or upload these files to another cloud storage service to free up space.
  • Remove unused or duplicated files: Take a closer look at the files in your OneDrive account and delete any that you no longer need. You may also want to look for duplicate files and remove them.
  • Move large files to another cloud storage service: If you have large files that you need to keep, but don't need to access frequently, consider moving them to another cloud storage service such as Google Drive or Dropbox.
  • Select what files to sync: OneDrive allows you to choose which files are synced to your device, and which files remain stored in the cloud. If you have files that are taking up too much space on your device, you can choose to stop syncing them to your device and only store them in the cloud.
  • Upgrade your OneDrive plan: If you are on a free or basic OneDrive plan, you may want to consider upgrading to a more premium plan that offers more storage space. This will allow you to store more files and photos in your OneDrive account.
  • Compress large files: If you have large files that you need to keep, you may want to consider compressing them to reduce their size. You can use file compression software, such as WinRAR or 7-Zip, to compress your files.
  • Store files locally: If you need to access a file frequently, you may want to consider storing it locally on your device, rather than in your OneDrive account. This will free up space in your OneDrive account, and allow you to access the file faster. www.office.com/setup
  • Delete version history: OneDrive keeps a version history of all your files, allowing you to recover earlier versions of a file if necessary. However, this can take up a lot of space in your OneDrive account. If you don't need to keep the version history of your files, you can delete it to free up space.

By following these steps, you should be able to resolve the issue of OneDrive being full. Remember to regularly review your OneDrive account and delete any files that you no longer need, to keep your account running smoothly.
