- I used to store my documents in the OneDrive folder of an old laptop (LaptopA).
- The OneDrive folder in LaptopA would sync with the online storage, however, because of the capacity limit, not all the files in LaptopA would sync with the online storage. So some files were synced, while most were not.
- Then, LaptopA broke. I removed the hard drive of LaptopA and used another laptop (LaptopB) to access said hard drive.
- However, I am unable to access the OneDrive folder in the hard drive of LaptopA and would get the message 'the file cannot be accessed by the system'
- I tried downloading the OneDrive app in LaptopB, and signing in with the same microsoft live account used on the old One Drive folder.
- Then, I tried to use the OneDrive folder in the hard drive of LaptopA as the synced folder in the OneDrive app in LaptopB, but it wouldn't allow it.
What else can I do to access the files in the old OneDrive folder?
