How to move/copy all items from my OneDrive account to my new Dropbox directory?
Fed up with OneDrive, therefore.....
How do I move or copy ALL items from my <OneDrive> to my new Dropbox directory <OneDrive Copy>?

If both services are installed on your computer and syncing to the local drive, just copy or move the files from one folder to the other.
If you don't have both applications syncing all of your files to the local drive, your best option would be to use a third-party service to transfer from one cloud provider to another, such as MultCloud. Other options would include Cyberduck or Mountainduck to browse or mount the cloud folders as local drives, and just copy files between them.

Thank you very much. Both directories are on the same machine and are now synced!!
There are several ways to move or copy all items from your OneDrive account to your new Dropbox directory.
1 - Download and Upload
- Download: Go to the OneDrive website and sign in to your account. Select all the files and folders you want to transfer and click "Download" to download them to your local storage.
- Upload: Open the Dropbox website or desktop app and upload the downloaded files and folders to your "OneDrive Copy" directory.
2- Third-Party Tools: Consider using third-party tools like CloudSfer or other file transfer software like AvePoint and Gs Richcopy 360 for faster , direct and more efficient transfers.
