Note
- As of January 1, 2022, we ended support for OneDrive desktop apps running on Windows 7, 8, and 8.1, but versions can be downloaded from OneDrive desktop app for earlier versions of Windows.
- As of August 20, 2021, OneDrive will no longer support Windows Server 2008 R2, as it has been out of extended support since January 2020. Versions can be downloaded for 32-bit or 64-bit.
Beta or Preview releases
We love early adopters, but PC and Mac beta releases aren't supported. You'll need to stick with production releases to continue to use OneDrive reliably.
However, if you're keen to always have the latest and greatest, there are two ways to get early access to new features:
- Join the OneDrive Preview for Android or OneDrive Preview for iOS.
- On your OneDrive desktop app, select Help & Settings > Settings > About and select Get early access.
