File Sharing

This sounds bad or not?

Can you share the content instead of a link?

It's basically saying the One Drive deletes all your local files in favor of the files now being stored on One Drive. The guy that made the video goes into a lot more detail about this, more that I can write here. Thats why I provided the link. I just sounds bad for your local files it what it boils down to. I hope that  this is incorrect, that's why I turned to you guys.
Thank you.

I HATE ONEDRIVE and deleted/disabled it on my laptop and desktop. Not because it deleted files, but because it sonstantly synchronizes. My processor gets hot and eventually crashes. So no one drive for me.

A note on that video itself does indicate that it contains "exaggerated language for comedic effect".

That being said, every pc I've setup with windows 10 or 11 (or reformatted or updated) as part of the setup asked if I wanted to enable one drive to help protect files and it gave the option to have files available on demand (stored only in the cloud), available in the cloud and offline, or only offline. If you tell it to only store in the cloud, then it will remove the files from your pc.

Hi everyone, Been using Onedrive since 365 came out, its never deleted any of my files. Have had at least 2 Pcs in that time and at setup, files on Onedrive have just come back. I have read a lot about completely moving files out of Ondrive but I've never bothered.
