1. Open your File Explorer and find your Onedrive folder.
2. Browse to the file or folder you want to share.

- Click “Share”
The Onedrive Share Box will pop up.

2. Select “Specific People”
Optional
3. Change “Can edit” or “Can view” if you don’t want others to be able to make changes. [“Can edit” by default]

5. Click “Apply” to update settings.
