How do I upload my old captures to my OneDrive

Zack_05 · Oct 20, 2023

As per the future update, my old captures from years ago will be deleted after 90 days or so, and I want to upload them to my OneDrive to keep them.

However, it only works if I upload them from "On this Xbox console", whereas almost all of my captures only show on "One the Xbox network".

If they are on the xbox network, does that mean they'll be safe from the purge after the update goes live, or will they be deleted?

If so, how can I upload them from the network to my OneDrive?

Thanks

:)

Hi, I've just tried both methods, and it's giving me the same answer, "Sorry, we can't share this right now. Try again. In a while". Which is the same message it gave me last week when I tried the same process.

They will be deleted unfortunately.

To upload them, open the Captures app, click on "Manage", make sure the drop-down list at the upper-left says "On the Xbox Network", then you can either click "Select all" to highlight the lot, or you can go through and click on the ones you want to upload, then click on "Upload to OneDrive".

BTW, if you upload a bunch of captures to OneDrive at once, once the process has completed, check to see that all of the files have properly uploaded. When I did it, some of the files were fine, some were only partially uploaded so they wouldn't display/play properly, and some were empty 0 byte files. So, yeah, make sure you check that the files are OK before you go deleting them from the Xbox Network, even if the process appears to have completed successfully on the console.

Hi, Zack. I’m Arturo, and I’ll be glad to provide assistance with your inquiry today.

Captures on the Xbox network are the ones that will be deleted after 90 days once January 2024 arrives.

You can upload the captures on the Xbox network by opening the clip > press A on the share button > press A once you highlight the OneDrive option.

Another way to upload the captures to OneDrive is highlight your capture > highlight “upload to OneDrive” > Press A.

Hi, Zack. Please review on your web browser the storage you have available for OneDrive.

Please be aware that Microsoft only offers 5GB in the free plan.

Well As You Can See. I Was In Upload Studio, Ready To Send My Vid To OneDrive. But Something Stopped It. I Went On OneDrive To See Wat Was Going on. Knowing that It Has Completely changed. And I Was Cross Because I Can't Upload No Captures To It. Besides
I Did Like The Old Version Of OneDrive for XBOX one S.
