Microsoft’s OneDrive Backup (Known Folder Move) can silently redirect your Desktop, Documents, and Pictures into the cloud during Windows 11 setup — and while that protects files from device loss and ransomware, it also changes where your files live and how you should manage backups; this...
Microsoft’s OneDrive Backup can be switched on for you during Windows 11 setup — but your files aren’t stolen; they’ve simply been moved into OneDrive and synced. If you prefer your Documents, Pictures, and Desktop to live locally, the change is reversible: stop folder backup in OneDrive, then...
