Let’s see from the top bar. You have the “New” function.

When you click New, it gives you an option to create the multiple files as per the screenshot, shown below and save it to your OneDrive directly.



Next, we have “Upload” function to upload the files and folder to your drive directly.



Next, we see the “Sync” button, which allows you to synchronize your OneDrive with the other devices.
