Introduction

To setup OneDrive for first use you will need to find and open the OneDrive app, sign in with your MVNU credentials and then locate your new OneDrive folder.

Find the OneDrive App

To start, we will need to locate the OneDrive app. By default in Windows 10 the app should be running and located in your system tray (The rightmost part of your Windows taskbar). You should see a carrot icon, click on it. In the new box that opens you will see a grey cloud icon, click this to open OneDrive.

Info

Note: If you see a blue cloud icon instead of a grey one then your OneDrive is already signed in and set up. You can skip to using OneDrive.
