3. You will see a confirmation message in the bottom right corner saying that OneDrive is being synced to your device, or that it is already synced if you have already done this.
4. After this is done and files are synced, you can click close.

5. To access your file explorer, and your newly synced OneDrive from your device, click on the Windows key.
6. Next, select file explorer. If this is not pinned, you can use the search bar to find this.
