The feature is now live in the Beta channel

   New OneDrive settings page in Windows 11

Microsoft rolled out a new OneDrive account management page in the Windows 11 Settings app earlier this year with a Dev build shipped as part of the Windows Insider program.

And now the very same improvement is making its way to the Beta channel, therefore moving closer to the public release – most likely, it will go live for production devices with the release of Windows 11 version 22H2, but at this point, no confirmation on this front is available.

With the new feature, users can manage their OneDrive accounts right from the Settings app pre-loaded with the operating system, something that comes in very handy, especially if you’re paying for more storage.

Not available for all insiders

The new page provides storage alerts as well, giving customers the choice of buying more storage with just a few clicks.

“Starting with today’s build, we have begun enabling OneDrive Standalone 100GB subscriptions in the Accounts page within Settings, similar to the Microsoft 365 subscriptions. This will allow you to view your recurring billing, payment method, and OneDrive storage usage within Windows 11. Additionally, if you are close to or above your OneDrive storage limit, you will be informed on the same page,” Microsoft explains.

Microsoft explains that it’s not yet making the feature available for all insiders in the Beta channel, as the company says it’s currently trying to collect additional feedback from users before bringing it to all insiders

As for the public rollout, this is something that nobody knows for sure at this point, but it’s believed it could kick off with the Windows 11 version 22H2 update later this year. The RTM build has already been announced, so right now, Microsoft is currently giving the finishing touches to the update before beginning the rollout to non-insider devices.
