Question

Photoshop Elements 2018 and OneDrive

Has anyone tried to connect directly to their onedrive account in the cloud as opposed to the sync'd one held locally? I am trying to do this as I no longer have space to hold a copy locally but trying to populate a catalog takes forever as one would expect - I have 500GB of pics. Anyone have any suggestions?

    That does not work. The files indexed in your catalog can't be in the Cloud (Onedrive, Dropbox or similar). They must be on an internal or external conventional drive.

    Thanks very much Michael. Its exactly as I thought. The problem I have is I do download (sync) my onedrive files to my external hard disk. But whenever I disconnect and reconnect the hard disk the onedrive sync starts from scratch so was trying to find a way of bypassing the local storage completely. Thanks for your very quick response.

    I just looked today and found the following. Should I delete the cloud thing? I have never even attempted to use the cloud for anything.
