This didn’t tell about your cookie policy and there was no streaming video of something I have no interest in. And where were all the ads?

Well at least this may very well work as intended

I'm just surprised it seems to actually be in c/users instead of a OneDrive folder

[–] [email protected] 45 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Probably downloaded it from ChatGPT, that's why it's in the downloads folder.

Default location of the downloads folder becoming OneDrive wouldn't suprise me at all

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 days ago

Agree. The default download location on iOS and padOS is iCloud and it's pretty clear that Microsoft is chasing Apple's monetization model.

I did a quick install of windows (last year I think?) and it sorted everything into a onedrive folder. documents, pictures, videos, downloads, all that stuff, looked normal from the file explorer, but was sneakily placed into a onedrive folder. it went something like c:/users/me/onedrive/. didn't realize what it had done until like 2 days later and it gave me some popup about not being able to upload. i don't even have a onedrive account; it just decided that was how it should be done. no idea what, if anything, it actually uploaded.

now if i have to install windows i have a script from privacy.sexy i run before doing anything else. havent had that happen again yet. still, probably best to assume anything on a windows machine is not private.

Sorry but no.

OneDrive would never back up a Downloads folder, that is just silly with the amount of data it gathers. Would fill up MS servers in no time.

The only folders it may put automatically in OneDrive are Pictures, Documents and Desktop.

it literally happened to me but ok

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago (3 children)

I believe you. When my ex got a laptop, literally every folder was onedrive. Even system folders were mapped to onedrive it was ridiculous. I had to backup all her stuff and manually fix the fuckery in the registry editor before i could uninstall onedrive.

I think it might offer Downloads as an optional checkbox to select on first login, but can't remember off top of my head. Also, they definitely want you to blow through your free storage to give you a reason to upgrade the storage.

As long as they got that copy and paste terminal code barrier of entry web dev is safe

If Microsoft invented WWW

Now start adding the "Well yes, but if" demands until the system inevitably breaks.
