I had on Win10, Win11, at home and at work. Always with files that are left open whole days on more than 1 PC. Since it do the networkdrive trick I never had the issue.

Plus it works a lot faster, as you’re actually using files on your M.2 SSD instead of checking the cloud every time you make a minor change. Let OneDrive figure it out afterwards.

You can do something like, or any other shared path that will work for your user rights.

 net use X: \\localhost\C$\OneDrive

It breaks the app connections for sure. Ever time ypu open a document LOCALLY it still refers to the https version. When you open it from X:\ It refers to X:\ which in turn refers to C:\ …

You notice the difference in speed and behavior immediately.

Windows user here. I purposely map OneDrive as a network drive on my PCs to break any connection MS apps have with OneDrive.

Everytime i don’t do this, I’ll end up with previous versions when opening it and non-existenting versions of what I was actually doing in OneDrive dedespite having the full paid plan.
