I'm having a problem with One Drive. It's syncing my the documents folders in my two PC's. Both are Windows 10, and they have similar programs installed-programs that use the documents folder for app info. I've tried to uncheck the documents folder from One Drive's "select which folders to sync" settings. It gave me this message. Is it possible to point windows back to the C/users/zachary/documents folder without my apps freaking out? Will the OS manage that, or am I screwed? I'm pretty sure that One Drive actually switched the Windows documents folder to the one it created in the One Drive folder at some point. I never told it to move it. smh

onedrive is really poor, particularly when you're getting started. I still can't figure out how to use it correctly.

I plan to revert the OS settings for the documents folder. We should check if there are any issues with this change. It's really frustrating that Microsoft instructed One Drive to handle this. They clearly want you to increase your cloud storage usage, which makes you think about upgrading. I'm ready to reinstall my apps just in case they cause problems.
