Contact Microsoft OneDrive Support

People use stuff like this for work, at least I do. So get rid of or let me have some basic options to get rid of distractions. No need for stupid recent documents. What I did last week is rarely relevant today. No need for stupid photo memories of work pics either. How about let me decide where u start the app at, preferably at some root folder with no irrelevant distractions. It is called having a clean interface. Ipad is obviously used on the go. If I am doing work on here in OneDrive it is probably a once a month emergency type thing on the go, and I doubt I am the only one. I dont need your stupid distractions that just slow things. Stop dumbing down things for amateurs and noobs. It only makes it more confusing for them in the long run especially once u change everything again which u will do too often once u realize how stupid it is. This is why far too many people are terrible at basic file management. I know where i keep my important files and current work. Why dont you? I cant even tell your app where. You do realize it is 2021 and we have things like AI, right???? But this is worse than 1980s software. Get with the 21st century!!!

Your files will be moved. Most of the links any of your programs need will be lost. The 2 reasons I have seen: (1) when it moved a documents folder to online, it ran out of storage space. Only two of 5 subfolders were available online. Excel could not find the documents that were moved to a Temporary One Drive folder on my C:drive. Even as my computers Administrator, I was not allowed access to the documents! (2). Third party applications like Ultrafractal, Photofusion, Photoshop, Illustrator, ...etc. could not locate saved files or templates or albums! Trying to uninstall One Drive was a big mistake since they changed User permissions! The One Drive support team helped me recover my lost files and I can now recreate artwork, correct photographs, find formulas in my excel worksheets...etc. However, One Drive’s file relocations continue to haunt me as I discover other programs that are no longer linked to originating software. On a side note, now that France is taxing online service providers, maybe someone at Microsoft will see online service as the new source of income for local, state and federal that, no doubt, legislators will never give up trying to get their fair share of.

I’m trying not to give Microsoft OneDrive a bad review, but I can’t use it to know if it’s worthwhile. Logging on, then scrolling through the pages quickly brings me to an advertisement for Premium OneDrive services, including a 7 day free trial to Microsoft Office 365. There is a little X in the upper right corner to cluck on and close the advertisement, but it doesn’t function! I can’t go backwards and I can’t go forward — unless I want to read the Terms of Service or Sign up for a monthly subscription! Finally, I gave up trying to delete the page which was preventing me from moving forward and actually using the app. I signed up for the Premium Service making a mental note to cancel my subscription before my 7 day trial expired and they started debuting me for $6.99 every month. The next time I opened the app I was confronted with same same advertisement, even though I had already signed up for it. BOTTOM LINE: Attention Microsoft! Either fix your ad so I can click out of it, or delete it from the OneDrive app!!! This doesn’t help me want to use Microsoft products!!!
