Backup photos

[AlexCakeBaker]

I have thousands of photos in downloads, onedrive folder?, and other files. How do I securely back up all of these into a folder in google drive so I dont have to worry about losing any photos when factory resetting my computer?

Open Google Drive

Copy files

Paste into Google Drive

Done

I am also asking how to fully find all photos i have on my pc so i can copy over all of them not forgetting some

You can use an app like treesize if you want to quickly view all of the contents on your disk

 

Most media goes to either photos, Videos, or the captures folder inside of videos

I would maybe start paying more attention to where you put your own files. I'd start with moving data to another physical drive entirely, don't keep that on your boot drive.

The thing is, I got this computer when I was young and didnt understand anything. I know that i need to do that but I firstly need to find all the photos and never do that mistake again, and I have been told to use treesize.
