Welcome to Patriots for Progress. Round these parts, we roleplay as American conservatives and use all the reactionary buzzwords while continuing to produce leftist and communist propaganda.

Rule 1: No special snowflake white supremacist nonsense, or any other kind of bigotry

Rule 2: No big city econ major capitalism talk. And no centrism either, the LORD gave us the second amendment for a reason

Rule 3: AMERICAN PATRIOTS ONLY πŸ¦…πŸ¦…πŸ¦…!!! This is America, so you'd best speak English, Navajo, Cherokee, or some other American language!

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.

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

[–] Kecessa 4 points 3 days ago (2 children)

It keeps the online copy and that's it

[–] DannyBoy 5 points 3 days ago

That is an absolutely wild default!

Wait hold up that makes it worse!

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?

Want me to install any random software on government property?

if you've never had a windows update forcably change your settings, then consider yourself lucky.

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.
