Solved Has OneDrive gone insane?!


The button clearly reads Startup apps, I don't need a gutdim hover tip to show me twice!!!

The tips are helpful if you have task manager set to Icons.

I've said it 14.3 times before, but there's nothing wrong with encrypting your data before sending it to the clouds. I have clients' data stored like this at Jeff Bezos' house, and I would certainly be in an awful state if someone were able to access some of it.

That's fine as long as there's a local HD backup to access. You can't always rely on the cloud to always be there.

I'd use something like VeraCrypt and encrypt everything locally before uploading it to any 3rd party cloud. And I don't care how convenient it is, I wouldn't use OneDrive out of principle more than anything else, either. Or google's for that matter.

So IF I did use the cloud (and I'm not inclined to do so) that's how I would do it.

You know what else bugs the feck out of me? Mouse hover tips, everywhere!!!

It was never like that in W7, unless the text was truncated!!!

Isn't there a way to turn those off?

Slow them down, yes..., (MouseHoverTime), but I like it fast..., just not for buttons that are already fully visible.

I especially love the ones that leech onto your mouse travel and cover the button you're actually aiming for!

If you are using a pihole or some DNS blocker which is blocking onedrive connection, then the app might be retrying continuously and failing over and over causing the log issue.
