    Look at them noobs who don’t know that you can tell One Drive to always keep a local copy of the files it backs up.

      That’s how Microsoft works. You’ll build the work flow now, and then they’ll slowly change the default. They will do this with all of their defaults, for a longer time than you will pay attention.

      By default it deletes your own files off your hard disk?

            Yeah, when you save a new file it’s automatically uploaded, if you don’t have a connection it will save it locally and wait until you have a connection to upload/delete.

            Kinda suck when you realize you don’t have any local copies and no internet, so I always turn the option to keep a local copy On.

              My guy just don’t use OneDrive at all but something else instead!
              Why are you putting up with something so invasive?
