Rush downloaded all onedrive files

[Trevert]

Hi. Rush downloaded (or tried) all my onedrive files and ran out of space locally. I cannot find where they are located in order to delete them.

As far as onedrive is concerned, they are not local. They are either "sync pending" or "error". Can anyone help me locate them and/or fix this please.

The program won't download files from OneDrive unless you tell it to. The nature of Rush is that it links to files where they are located and saves its project files in the cloud. Linking to files on OneDrive should not impose on your device's storage space.

You are dead wrong about that. When I launched Premier Rush it for the first time it started downloading, seemingly at random, huge video files from Onedrive that I never asked it to. That slowed my system to a crawl.

How do we stop it from doing that? It keeps happening. Just started today...

Had this problem with Premiere trying to download all OneDrive Files. This happened when i first opened it on a new install. I closed it and it stopped. Re-opened premiere and it didn't happen again. I'm wondering if it does an inital crawl through your files (why adobe). There's a pop-up that alerts you this is happening and I think you can block it. But since it didn't do it again I wasn't able to test. If you look up "Windows privacy settings that apps use" it will provide more information. To recover space you have to go through your OD folders, right-click and and choose "Free up space".

You're correct that Rush its self doesn't download the files and I see the checkbox option at the bottom about sync with Creative Cloud, left that unchecked.

What it is doing is forcing OneDrive to download a local copy of every file that is in a folder you navigate to, before it will display any of the files in that folder or allow you to continue navigating your folder structure. This becomes particularly painful when the desired video is a couple folders deep and there were dozens of large video files in the OneDrive cloud in the preceding folders. I should be able to navigate my folders freely without having a local copy of everything in my OneDrive. Is there any solution to stop this behaviour?

I know this was posted only a couple of days ago but this needs a major bump, such an obvious problem for Windows users in particular.

FIX THIS ADOBE!
This is the dumbest thing ever. I can't even look through my files without Premiere Pro trying to download everything off of my Onedrive cloud to my SSD's... Certain things from onedrive are on my local drives, but I can't even look at those.

After Effects tried to do the same thing - though at least with that I could stop and import from my windows explorer. I am not sure why I can't import from Windows explorer in PremierePro. It is 2023, get it together.
