OneDrive Auto-Sync Causes Gaming Headaches When Switching PCs
- OneDrive automatically syncs files when you set up a new PC, which can cause conflicts for gamers who switch between devices
- Synced game settings files may overwrite local files, leading to problems launching or changing settings
- This happened to the author with Red Dead Redemption 2 and Assassin's Creed Valhalla
- OneDrive syncing should be opt-in by default rather than opt-out
- You can fully unlink OneDrive or exclude folders to avoid sync conflicts
