With Microsoft winding down development of the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update, it’s time to take a look at the biggest and best new features that this release will include. “Fall Creators Update Feature Focus: OneDrive Files On-Demand” OneDrive will also allow external sharing with users that do not have a Microsoft account. Other changes include ZIP file support, shared notifications between desktop and mobile, file restore for self-service recovery from mass deletes or ransomware attacks, mobile client updates, and more. There is also new built-in functionality allowing users to see more than 270 different files types, not only on the web but also the desktop, without having the actual application installed.Īlso announced is an improved UI that will allow users to see what has been shared with others through a new information pane, along with an improved UI for sharing options, standardized between Office Online, as well as Windows and macOS, where Office 2016 will be getting the update in the next few months. The new feature will now sync all files from your OneDrive, with some files and folders stored on the hard drive. “OneDrive update to finally add Files On-Demand on October 17”
When you’re connected to the Internet, you’ll be able to use the files like every other file on your device. New files created online or on another device appear as online-only files, which don’t take up space on your device. When you turn on Files On-Demand, you’ll see all your files in File Explorer and get new information about each file. OneDrive Files On-Demand helps you access all your files in OneDrive without having to download all of them and use storage space on your device.
Being able to view all of your local and cloud files is a huge feature - and with separate icons for local, cloud, and on-demand makes it easy to see what is there and work with the right files. Hope you find this information and supporting material useful. Now with OneDrive Files On-Demand, you have the ability to see your local and cloud file structure, and select which files should be on-premises (local), moved entirely to the cloud, or available in the cloud but accessible on-demand on your local system, whether online or offline, without having a duplicate copy of the file. I remember moving files between systems back in the early 1990’s when it was very painful, requiring a crossover cable and patience. With so many different collaboration and productivity tools available to users, it’s no surprise that the volume of content created and stored on our local devices (laptops, desktops, storage devices) is growing at an astronomical rate.
