Hello,

I want to free up space on my Samsung Galaxy Note 10+.

When I try to enable 'Free up space on the device' in the OneDrive app, I get the message:

'Camera upload must be enabled ...'

The problem is that there is no camera upload setting anymore.

Or am I missing something here ...?

I use the latest version of Android and version 6.1.1 of OneDrive.

Thanks!

    "Go to onedrive webpage and under additional security options just remove your Samsung account"

    My onedrive account is connected to a completely different email account that isn't aware of the Samsung account. Samsung seems to have unilaterally decided to turn this on. It also failed to migrate my OneDrive backup settings from my old Samsung phone.

    If you read the answers above on this thread you will learn how to get the camera upload setting back. In short, you need to delete the Samsung account from your One Drive.
