00:00:09

learn how to optimize every megabyte with storage metrics

00:00:13

to get started. Open your onedrive online application

00:00:18

once on the home page,

00:00:19

access your settings by clicking on the gear icon at the top right.

00:00:23

Then go to onedrive settings and more settings

00:00:27

on this page.

00:00:28

You will find all the hidden settings of the application

00:00:31

such as managing access to your documents or language settings.

00:00:35

Today,

00:00:36

we will focus on the storage feature and more specifically on storage metrics

00:00:43

at the top right of the page.

00:00:45

You will see the total available space and the current free space

00:00:49

here we have 224 G byte of total space with 1022.32 G bytes still free.

00:00:55

This means that only 0.70 G byte is used.

00:00:59

The different folders are listed with information

00:01:02

total size.

00:01:03

This is the total amount of storage space. Each folder uses

00:01:07

percent of parent.

00:01:09

This shows the proportion of space occupied by

00:01:11

a folder relative to its parent folder.

00:01:14

For example, the documents folder uses 99.44% of the site's total space

00:01:20

percent of site quota.

00:01:23

This percentage indicates the share of the

00:01:25

site's total space that a folder occupies.

00:01:28

For example, documents occupy 0.15% of the site's total space.

00:01:34

00:01:36

this column shows the last date. Each folder was modified

00:01:40

to free up space. Click on manage storage in the desktop application settings.

00:01:45

Here you will find the largest files in your cloud,

00:01:49

select the file as you no longer use and click delete

00:01:53

for optimal cleaning of your storage space. Remember to empty your recycle bin.

00:01:58

00:02:03
