“If you don’t save your data to someone else’s computer then we can’t monetize it.”

I know they’re not explicitly selling SkyDrive or OneDrive or whatever it’s called now, but they kinda are.

What’s funny is, this file is stored in an encrypted container that does live in the cloud. 😄

Edit: Thanks to user @[email protected] I now know about F12 in Office applications to bring up the “classic” Save As… dialog. Today I learned!

    I’ve had exactly the same experience. Let me addd one more: when OneDrive decides to back up open files, they ate regularly deleted both from local and cloud. Those are the files I tend to use the most, and I grew so frustrated that I ended recreating my Documents folder steucture in my Downloads folder, which doesn’t get synced. (IT is useless; when I complained abou that, they told me that One Drive was a third-party application, and they didn’t support those. )
