Micro$oft when I try to enjoy my local drive in peaC:\

Yeah, my factory windows install died and refused to boot up, because I spent too long without creating an account or some ransom shit like that...I was sad for a second...then I booted back to Debian as I do every day :))
I've never had an account.. not sure what weirdness you experienced but I've never once been pestered or asked for a login. Infact, the only thing I get is the 'lets finish setting up windows' full screen trash, which is just a window and I can alt-f4 to close. It's been years like that.

Agreed, but most people don't backup at all. Then complain very loudly when they lose everything and blame everyone else other than themselves. Saw it daily fixing people's phones.
The technically inclined were the worst offenders, they always felt like they knew better than the defaults but they never actually set anything up.
OneDrive sucks but it is better than losing everything because your shit suddenly dies.

I'd love to back up my phone locally, if there was an option, but AFAIK there isn't, so I'm stuck. This is a problem with companies forcing you into their cloud ecosystem and removing your ability to bypass it and control things yourself. It's only getting worse.

I'm gonna go buy a copy of Linux

I love my jobs implementation of onedrive. It copies files from my hardrive, erases the local copy, and then loses the remote version.

The login is now unskippable and part of the OS setup.

But housing it behind a key combination is malicious for the average user.

A reminder that if your data is not backed up in a different physical location, then it is not safe.
And also if you don't try to restore your backups from time to time, you may actually not have any backups.

I don't even have a login for it, let alone try to use it. What it has done, however, has made itself the standard "My Documents" folder in the user profile. I am not using it for anything, I have that all on a totally separate drive and mostly everything correctly points to the new destination I have for My Documents, My Games, My Videos, etc.
However, I can not get the Quick Links on the left side of an explorer window to stick to the new destination. It keeps reverting back to the OneDrive folder within the user folder so using them just sends me to an empty folder.

I miss boxed copies of Linux $50 and you got a thick book with it.

Would actively fuck apps up because it would register as a file touch and break things that expected unchanged file content
