Onedrive; a sad excuse for cloud storage

I have 2 onedrive accounts on my laptop. I cannot save any file of any sort without the file getting uploaded to the cloud, and I cannot always choose what onedrive account the file is uploaded to. There seems to be no chance for the file to only be stored locally. Onedrive did not even allow me to copy the files to the another onedrive account.I tried to remove one of the onedrive accounts on my pc with no luck. I did it because I felt Onedrive was very invasive, it grabbed all the "default" folders(Desktop, Download, etc.) and uploaded them to onedrive.Why is this a problem? Because the onedrive account that was doing all this was the onedrive account I recieved from the place where I study. I did somewhat remove it, but could not access files that were both stored locally and on cloud. I tried deleting onedrive from my pc altogether, but still did not work and newly saved files were uploaded to onedrive even though I could not access it. I ended up resetting my pc altogether...The speed and storage is not great either compared to services like google drive. Credit where credit is due. I think it is nice to have a cloud service that work on your pc without the need to open a browser. It is just sad that onedrive is not better than it isTL:DRIn my experience Onedrive is very invasive. It takes your files and "default" folders and uploads them to the cloud without permission. All in all I think onedrive needs a lot of work aswell as the way it interacts with other Office services (Word, Powerpoint, etc.)Suggestions. - Help users configure onedrive the way they want it - A feature were you can upload Word documents and assign them folders in onedrive - Make Word better when collaborating with others as well as all the other Office services - Add a onetime purchase option for extra cloud space. Maybe I will actually buy it then...Sorry for bad grammar, misspellings, etc. I am not a native english speaker
