    Documents, Desktop and Picture folders are just moved from the user folder into the user folder\OneDrive folder.

    Other than that it work exactly the same.

    OneDrive also always has a local folder. Usually in your user folder.

    You can blame a lot on OneDrive, but this isn’t one of them.

      I don’t want any of my files uploaded to OneDrive; therefore I don’t want to save them in the OneDrive folder. I have other folders where I’d like to save my files instead.

      So the behaviour I described is a persistent annoyance for me; despite you telling me it isn’t a problem.

        I don’t mind OneDrive sync, I like it honestly.

        What I absolutely do not want, is my Desktop on One Drive. For starters, its often a scratch place. I don’t want it instantly pushing 6GB of photos I just pulled off my camera’s memory card to the cloud before I can sorr them.

      You see, I have OneDrive disabled and set to not sync.

      It still wants me to save to a OneDrive directory, simply because I’m signed into my Microsoft account.
