Step 3: Choose Your Sync Folder Location
OneDrive typically suggests a default location for your synced files, such as a folder called "OneDrive" within your user directory. While this default option is convenient, you can choose a different location if it better suits your needs. Once you’re satisfied with the chosen sync folder location, click "Next" to proceed.

Once the setup is complete, you can visit OneDrive in File Explorer. Click on "Open my OneDrive folder," and here you will find all the files that have been uploaded to OneDrive.
