## Questions

### Why are there copies of my files with my computer’s name?

OneDrive creates them when the same file changed in two places. Keep the right version and delete the other.

### Is it safe to reset OneDrive?

Yes. Files stored in the cloud aren’t deleted; resetting just rebuilds the connection.
