We've had kids from around town at the house for like seven hours now. No idea why no one had school or needed to go home today.
Better check for your wallet. Lol

um what? No.
I was referencing adding the accounts as a direct link in the OPEN portion of the app. AKA, being able to click on the OneDrive icon there and go right to your account. I figured this would be the safest way to avoid any sort of local mappings or local files to try and go full on @scottalanmiller "no local files" compliant. AKA no danger from any crypto- type stuff.
I was not thinking of referencing them in the way you showed, by just typing in the address of your SharePoint/ODfB location.
Or am I (as usual) missing what you are trying to say?
I did not type anything. I clicked on the "folder" listed in the open dialog and that is how it came up.

Joke would be on them.

This is what I did...
I added my OneDrive account as one of the folders (icons) on the OPEN section. When I clicked the OneDrive icon, only the folders I had synced to my PC would show up. I could not get to any of the non-synced folders. I disabled OneDrive, and they all showed up.
Have you tried it with a OneDrive account? I wonder if the functionality is different for SharePoint/ODfB?
I had a lot of syncing issues with ODfB, so I do not have it installed.
This kind of gets me where I want to be anyway, with nothing local. But now I am curious.
-
I re-enabled OneDrive (personal) and it's back to the same functionality. It ONLY accesses the locally stored OneDrive files.
-
Ah, so OneDrive you have the issue, but no issue like that with ODfB?

According to @JaredBusch, no, but I have not tried it yet.
UPDATE: I just tried it and ODfB does the exact same thing. I can't see folders that I don't sync locally.
@JaredBusch do you have all your ODfB folders synced locally? If you do, you wouldn't notice what I am noticing. That used to be the ODfB default.

Were they just out for a stroll? Or were they being led down that road?

At some point some old woman was walking with them. With, leading.... no idea.

There was a lady in the very beginning of the video.

Actual view from my front parlour today:
Looks like home.

I missed the lady. She had the same walk as the cows and blended in.

Ha! I just configured a new printer with an IP that had been a different printer a couple of months ago. After a power cycle, the new printer started barfing out documents that were probably sent off to print in February. That is a persistent spooler right there.

Including 400 copies of the Pizza Hut lunch menu from a persistent, frustrated person?

@JaredBusch do you have all your ODfB folders synced locally? If you do, you wouldn't notice what I am noticing. That used to be the ODfB default.
There is no way to sync anything but all of the folders yet. I believe that functionality is coming in the updated ODfB? Does this mean you are using the beta app?

No, not using the beta app. I am on Windows 10, though. Let me say I have never purposely installed a beta.
I do think they updated the interface, though, because you can now add both accounts from the same place, which I'm not sure you could do before. And I can selectively select folders in my ODfB.
Try going into your ODfB settings and see if you can select folders. Maybe they pushed an update.

@BRRABill said in What Are You Doing Right Now:
That is the new merged application where ODfB now uses the same backend sync and OD.
I have not gotten it yet.
-
So when you DO get it, and you want to only selectively sync SOME of your folders, I think you'll run into the same issue in the Office apps that I did.
All or nothing.
