About this article

This article includes instructions for accessing your OneDrive for Business using your favorite web browser. It is intended for students and employees.

Where is your OneDrive for Business?

Your OneDrive for Business is a storage folder located in the cloud, which is a different way of saying it's located on a Microsoft network server somewhere off campus that you can access via the Internet. Given that your OneDrive for Business exists in the cloud, it makes sense that one way to access it would be using a web browser on a device connected to the Internet.

How to access your OneDrive for Business using a browser

  • Open your browser and navigate to WSU's home page (http://www.winona.edu). Go to the Resource tab and click on Office365&Email.

  2. Log into your Microsoft Office 365 account with your StarID and password

Finding files

Search for files by entering keywords, file names, etc. in the Find a file search field (Figure 2). Recently-opened files will be listed on the left sidebar, along with several default search filters:

  • My Documents - Select to list all of your folders and files
  • Followed Documents - Select to list documents that you are following, such as files shared by a classmate, group member, or professor
  • Shared with Me - Select to list others' folders and files that have been shared with you
