Saving your work
Always save files to OneDrive - Nipissing University. Files saved only to the virtual desktop may be lost when you sign out.
1. Open OneDrive in File Explorer
Open Windows File Explorer and select OneDrive - Nipissing University in the left navigation panel.
2. Sign in if prompted
If OneDrive asks you to sign in, use your Nipissing University Microsoft 365 account.
3. Confirm OneDrive is connected
Look for the solid blue OneDrive cloud icon near the clock on the Windows taskbar. When you hover over it, the status should show that OneDrive is up to date.
You can also confirm OneDrive is working by checking for status icons beside files in the OneDrive folder.
