My God I hate this. My wife will tell me she’s confused and can’t find any of her documents, and lo and behold the Microsoft somehow enabled OneDrive and either replaced everything on the computer with her account, or moved everything from the computer to God knows where.

Does it help to disable onedrive at startup?

I’ve seen it get turned on all by itself after a feature update. Maybe it can help.

This is her business computer so it needs to be Windows sadly.

OneDrive is pretty simple and usually replaces the original save locations with ones also backed up online.
