Hello
Since the last update I cannot use my Documents as I used to save them to flash drive. I tried not synching everything but they stay in Onedrive where I do not want them.
It seems like Google's drive which I do not trust.
Can I fix this?
Thank you
Hi Peter, I had to do an install of Microsoft Office (Home and Student 2013 yesterday on a customer's new Win 8.1 machine and noticed that the default setting on for example Microsoft Word is to save documents to One drive(cloud)
Like a lot of folks(but obviously not all of them) my customer preferred to keep his documents on his own computer rather than elsewhere.
I showed him the setting in Word and he is more happy now that he can save to his "Documents" folder
If your Documents have ended up on the cloud, you should be able to move them over to your "Documents" folder.
When commissioning his new Win 8.1 machine I noticed other settings that indicated that stuff was to be saved to the cloud….. it seems that this is what Microsoft now wish to offer to their customers. There are of course considerable advantages to this approach…but alas, some disadvantages for some folks as well.
As always some folks will think this is a jolly good idea, whilst others will not be quite so keen on it but choices are available.
Hope this helps and apologies for late response. Regards paws
