常见问题

以下是有关禁用 OneDrive 的一些常见问题,这些问题应该可以帮助您快速了解最新信息。

OneDrive 可以安全使用吗?

由于其庞大的用户群,Windows 系统吸引了全球黑客的大量关注。作为微软首选的云存储服务,OneDrive 也不得不忍受其公平的滥用份额。然而,尽管无数次成为目标,OneDrive 并没有被利用,迫使黑客空手而归。

OneDrive 通过与硬盘驱动器上的 BitLocker 同步来加密所有数据和文档。在传输过程中,Microsoft Cloud 负责处理加密,这本身就非常密封。

此外,Microsoft 的 OneDrive 按文件加密您的数据。因此,如果任何密钥被泄露,黑客将只能访问该特定文件,而不是该文件夹或驱动器中的所有文件。总而言之,Microsoft OneDrive 尽可能安全,为临时用户和专业人士提供足够的保护。

卸载 OneDrive 时会删除您的数据吗?

不会,卸载 OneDrive 时,您存储在云端或本地的数据不会受到影响。虽然通过 OneDrive 临时下载到本地存储的文件在卸载应用程序时会被删除。

为什么要禁用 OneDrive?

OneDrive 会自动启动并在后台运行,直到您禁用它,这可能会对资源不足的 PC 产生影响。因此,禁用 OneDrive 可能是减少一些 RAM 和 CPU 使用率的好选择。

Microsoft OneDrive 会影响 PC 性能吗?

Microsoft OneDrive 会定期检查新文件以进行同步,这通常不会对您的 PC 造成任何问题。但是,如果它开始处理太多文件,您的计算机很可能会变慢。在这种情况下,您可以停止 OneDrive 的同步过程并重新获得一些信心。
