Microsoft OneDrive


Starting February 1, 2023, cloud storage used across Microsoft 365 apps and services will include Outlook.com attachments data and OneDrive data. All data will continue to be protected with Microsoft’s comprehensive set of security features.

This update will not impact your Outlook.com mailbox storage amount. However, this may reduce how much cloud storage you have available to use with your OneDrive. If you reach your cloud storage quota, your ability to send and receive emails in Outlook.com will be disrupted.
 
Whoa. Dick move.

the linked comment has a stupid fix that works. microsoft representative be like upgrade to windows 11 because it does not have this issue and we cannot find why it's happening on windows 10.
 
Microsoft is committed to improving your Microsoft 365 experience, and we want to let you know about an upcoming change to the OneDrive photos storage infrastructure. Soon, data from photos saved in your Gallery and in your albums will each count separately against your total Microsoft storage quota. This change will gradually roll out across accounts starting on October 16, 2023.
This change may affect how much storage you have available. If you are over your storage limit, you will not be able to save new files to OneDrive, sync files to OneDrive, and send or receive emails in Outlook.com. To help you avoid such interruption, we are granting you a one-time storage bonus that will take effect when the data change is applied to your account. This storage bonus is free of charge and will expire one year after the date of issue. Once your storage bonus has been applied, you can view the quantity and expiration date in your OneDrive manage storage.
To stay under your storage limit and avoid service interruption, we recommend regularly deleting photos, videos, files, and email attachments you no longer need.

What kind of improvements they are making that they cannot even make aliases of images for albums and deduplicate images and make aliases of duplicates lol.

Important changes to your OneDrive photo storage
 
on the other hand, not sure when onedrive web ui got a massive update. performance improvements are massive. it actually works now for a change. microsoft photos app on windows on the other hand is a pile of shit at least on windows 10.
 
On August 31, 2023, we began to communicate an upcoming update to our cloud storage infrastructure that would result in a change in how OneDrive photos and photo albums data is counted against your overall cloud storage quota.

This change was scheduled to start rolling out on October 16, 2023. Based on the feedback we received, we have adjusted our approach, we will no longer roll out this update.

We will maintain the current photo album experience, as it is today.
