![]() OneDrive in Windows 8.1 showing "Online-Only" Placeholders If you wanted to free up some space, you could just right click a file or folder and choose “Make available online only” and it would remove the local copy. ![]() Opening a file which was not on your PC would initiate a download of it, and then the file would open and stay synced on your computer. In Windows 8.1, going through the Windows Explorer view you could see all of your files in OneDrive whether they were synced to your PC or not. OneDrive has changed dramatically from the Windows 8.1 implementation, and not necessarily for the better. If you purchase Office 365, as a bonus you get unlimited OneDrive storage (right now it just shows 10 TB but it's increasing over time) so if you do need space in the cloud consider that. For free, it comes with 15 GB of storage, and there are a couple of paid tiers to increase that storage. OneDrive is Microsoft’s cloud storage for consumers, and it of course is built into Windows 10.
