I have a Windows 7 PC dedicated just for using the built in DVD maker programme, but I have not tried installing a monologue, when I have time I will give it some thought.

OneDrive

First up is OneDrive, Microsoft's storage option. Those who use Windows 8 and 10 have OneDrive built into their operating system, where it shows up in the file explorer next to all of the files on your computer's hard drive. However, anyone can use it on the Web, by downloading a desktop app for Mac and earlier versions of Windows, or the OneDrive Android, iOS, Windows Phone and Xbox apps.

You can store any kind of file in the service, including photos, video and documents, and then access them from any of your Windows PCs or mobile devices. The service organizes your files by type for you, so it's easy to find what you need.

The Android, iOS and Windows Phone apps all have automatic photo uploads, meaning that when you shoot a photo with your phone, it's automatically saved to your account. OneDrive's biggest strength is that it works closely with Microsoft Office apps, such as Word or PowerPoint, so when you launch one of those applications you'll see a list of recent documents saved to OneDrive. If you have an Office 365 subscription and open a document saved in OneDrive, you can collaborate on it in real time with other people. You'll even be able to see the changes they make as they make them.

Microsoft is hoping that OneDrive will be the place where you store your photos, and the company is working on technology that will eventually sort all of the photos you take based on how important and meaningful they are. For instance, if you take a photo of your kids, a picture of a special meal and a shot of your parking space so you can find your car later, OneDrive would be able to understand the importance of each picture, save the ones it thinks are the most useful, and trash the rest. That's still big-picture stuff for OneDrive, but it gives you an idea of the direction Microsoft is moving in.

In late 2015, Microsoft made an announcement that it would no longer offer unlimited cloud storage to Office 365 subscribers. Instead, they are limited to 1TB. Additionally, beginning in early 2016, the 100GB and 200GB paid storage plans will be discontinued, replaced with a 50GB for $1.99 per month plan. You will no longer get extra space if you allow the OneDrive apps to automatically backup photos on your phone. Finally, anyone with a Microsoft account will only get 5GB of free storage, instead of 15GB. We will update this guide in 2016 when those changes are made.

Where it excels
•Works seamlessly with Windows devices because it's built in to the Windows operating system.
•It's easy to open and edit files from OneDrive in Microsoft's other applications, such as Word or Excel.
•Signing up for OneDrive gets you a Microsoft account, which gives you access to Outlook, Xbox Live, and other Microsoft services.

Where it falls flat
•OneDrive's automatic file organization doesn't always put files in the correct folders.

Best for: If you have a Windows PC, tablet and phone, and need to get to your files from any device with little effort.

Yes, it will, but you will probably need a number. I downloaded for free when it was available, and it worked fine. After a Win10 update, Windows would not run. I tried to reinstall it, but it wanted a number - a number which I never received. Someone recommended looking on eBay for aWin10 activation number. I got one for about $15, and it worked. This was on a Dell desktop from about 2008.

Your Microsoft Windows and Office keys are now tied to your Microsoft Account and should or will update automatically even after a complete reinstall on older PCs, I did one yesterday for a customer on a ten year old Dell. She was a victim of the windows 10 automatic update that misplaced users files and went into a loop.

Not about backups but, I downloaded & installed Paintshop Pro 2019 Ultimate & it invaded & took over most of my other programs. If I click on, say Picassa, PSP opens. If I click on My Printer, PSP opens. WTH did I do?!?! How do I make it stop?

PSP has set Windows to open a .jpg file by default, right click on a ,jpg file and select open with, choose the programme you want to use and then check always use this programme.

First, you must know I know very little about hard drive back up, as I have allways used Carbonite. So my question is-- If I back up my photos with a Seagate hard drive, will a copy of the photos remain on the computer? Pardon my ignorance.

I wouldn't use a Seagate, best Hard Drives are the Western Digital Black.

This is what you have: Windows 8.1, Intel core i-7, 64-bit, the processor is AMD FX 8300 eight-core processor (8 CPUs) 3.3Ghz with a 32MB Ram (upgraded from a 16MB) and 500g solid state HD,

As previously stated you either have intel or you have AMD, two different processors made by two different companies and not compatible.

Your specs are better than average.

I am running Windows 10 on an old Dell XPS 400 EX Windows XP, that is ten years old.
