Control Panel and MUCH more for you to use

    MS Windows 11 is really persistent about wanting me to use their OneDrive Cloud storage. I don't care to use it. My important data is already backed up by other services. And the last thing I need is for MS to automatically move files from my local hard drive to a cloud server. I'm not keen about losing file access during an Internet outage. 

     

    This video explains more about what OneDrive does and how to change/disable settings.

    I'm not a fan of Windows 11 at all.
