Storage on OneDrive drops in capacity noticeably

Anonim

Arriving changes to Microsoft's cloud storage service, OneDrive, some changes that are surely not going to sit well with users because they refer to something fundamental in this type of utilities such as capacity.

And if at first Microsoft made a risky bet offering a higher amount than what other alternatives such as Dropbox also offered for free, now change and unsubscribe noticeably the cloud storage limit. But keep reading, because there are nuances.

And the Redmond people are sending an email to all OneDrive users to communicate that the 15 GB free plan will drop to 5 GBas of next July 27 in what is a more than controversial decision.Also, if in your case you used the extra 15 GB given to those who activated the uploads from the camera album of their device, you will see how this amount also drops unexpectedly. This is the communication that affected users are receiving

But be careful, because not everyone is receiving the same notice and in my case I received a similar email, but completely opposite. In my case, at least confirmed that I would continue to enjoy those 15 GB for having responded affirmatively to my desire to continue maintaining this capacity and that it was sent previously.

But to confirm that not everyone will have their capacity reduced these captures can be used.

In one you can see how the 15 GB remain valid without limit for the camera and the generic 15 GB (the Samsung bonus if has an expiration date) while in the other account the already mentioned capacity of 5 GB is appreciated.

This is the full text that Microsoft is sending to some OneDrive users:

A measure that is sure to not sit well with the users who are affected, especially in cases of intensive use of OneDrive in those that exceeded the capacity now offered of 5 GB, something that sentences them either to checkout or to eliminate expendable elements.

However, if you receive any of these emails warning of the decrease, or as in my case another in which you they communicate the persistence of the one you already had, you can tell it in the comments so that we can try together a better idea about what method they are following from Redmond.
