November 9, 20232 yr Microsoft OneDrive is quite good - at least I think so. I've been using it for years, through a 365-subscription. But you need to turn a few things off in it. By default, OneDrive gets the idea, that you want to backup all sorts of things, like the Desktop, Documents-folder, Videos- and Music-folders etc... It's insanely frustrating, that Microsoft adds these by default and often without telling you about it. What's worse, if you have it turned on, it's (sometimes) quite dificult turning if off completely. If you don't use OneDrive - completely remove it from the computer (there's instructions on how to do so). If you do use it, then make sure, that it isn't backing up various user-folders (specifically the Videos, Music, Documents, Desktop etc) folders by default located in C:\Users\<USERNAME>\ ... Sorry for the rant. 🙂 Best regards,--Anders Bermann-- ____________________Scandinavian VAPilot-ID: SAS2471
November 9, 20232 yr Dag/bonjour Emile, That's because P3D creates a directoy in your "Documents" folder. And at one point in time Windows (well actually the OneDrive app that starts automaticly in the background when you start your pc) asked you if you wanted to have backups of Pictures, Desktop and Documents. So 2 possible ways to get rid of this come to my mind... a) disable the backup of "Documents" b) see if there's an option/tweak that you can do in one of P3D's config files to place that folder on another location. I don't own P3D anymore so I cannot test it here. Regards. Edit: I found this... I guess it should be applicable for V6 as well.How to move the P3D folders in the documents folder - Prepar3D Forums Edited November 9, 20232 yr by vesalius Regards, Vital Vanbeginne
