Hi all,

I tried to implement the below URL. I am certain that I completed the script perfectly, but when running through the script, Automator fails to copy all of the files in the folder substructure as it is in the origin folder. Also, Automator fails to copy all of the files, for some reason.

https://www.macworld.com/article/1157339/business/automate-backup.html

Can anyone help me? Can anyone suggest a simpler or more elegant solution to this? All I want to do is automatically copy all of the files and folders (in the structure that they are already in) on my Desktop to my OneDrive folder. I have 1 TB of OneDrive storage provided by my university. This will mean that I am covered if my Mac fails and I can access all of my files and folders from anywhere in the world with an internet connection. I am not too bothered about versions of the files, the latest version will do for me.

Thank you very much in advance!
