i have got private videos on my computer which i have deleted and i have lost the account that i have my onedrive on but i don’t really need that account but half of my family use my computer for work and i want to know if onedrive automatically uploads file onto onedrive without me knowing because the private videos i have deleted of my Videos file on my file explorer and i forgot my email and password for that onedrive account so i don’t know if them private videos are uploaded without me wanting them there or do you have to manually do it?

    Open OneDrive app, then select the Backup settings in there, you should be able to add the Videos folder to the list.

    The Videos folder is not automatically synced to OneDrive and the files in that folder will not upload automatically, you would need to add that folder to OneDrive sync list.
