OneDrive makes it easy to transfer your files and photos
With internet access and a few clicks, you can back up your files online. When you’re ready, sync them onto a new PC—or you can leave them in the cloud without having to download them. This saves space on your new PC’s hard drive and leaves your files and photos easily accessible from any of your devices, anywhere.1

Set up OneDrive
With Windows 10 or Windows 8, OneDrive is already installed and ready for you to get started. If you don't have a Microsoft account, sign up for one using your existing or new email address. It's free and comes with 5 GB of OneDrive storage.

For the best possible experience, we recommend doing a fresh installation of your applications on your new Windows 10 PC.

For any software not currently available in the Microsoft Store, we recommend going to that company’s official website and downloading the Windows 10 version from there. Your local retailer may also sell the latest versions of your apps and programs. In limited circumstances, some older software may not have an updated version that is compatible with Windows 10.
