    Would like to keep my Microsoft Money data file, xxxxx.mny, on OneDrive so I don't have to worry about syncing files between my 2 computers. Is there a way to tell Microsoft Money WHERE I store my data file, e.g., OneDrive, so it will open the correct data file?

    OneDrive - Another over complicated product from Microsoft?

    I recreated what I think you wanted on a virtual machine, in a very straightforward way. Here are my steps.

    Step 1: Launch OneDrive for the first time. Click on the option at bottom to change the default location for my OneDrive to a second hard drive on my system. (if you already have oneDrive setup, go to settings and choose Unlink account to get back to this point).

    Step #2. Create a OneDrive folder on my E:\ drive, and select it.

    Step #3. Go into newly created E:\OneDrive and create folders for Desktop, Documents and Pictures.

    Step #4. Go to C:\users\user\{Desktop,Documents,Pictuers} and move them to your new E:\OneDrive\{Desktop,Documents,Pictuers}

    Step #5. Run a test, using Quick access area, create a test file on the desktop folder.

    Seems pretty easy to me.

    How to move the Microsoft Office File Cache when using Office 2016 and the Next Generation OneDrive Sync Client?

    I have Office 2016 and use the Next Generation OneDrive Sync Client, both running under Windows 10.

    My computer has two drives with one partition each:

    • C: a small solid state disk for OS, applications and some hand-selected files that require high access speeds
    • E: a large hard disk drive

    My OneDrive libraries are set to sync with folders on drive E:.

    I have attempted to upload 135 GB data spread over 85,377 files in 9,273 folders into one of my OneDrive libraries. During upload I realized that OneDrive builds up a huge OfficeFileCache in C:\Users\Hauke\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Office\15.0\OfficeFileCache. The OfficeFileCache grew to 25 GB in size -
    and then my C: drive was full. When this point was reached, OneDrive stopped working with the helpful error message "OneDrive stopped working".

    I want to keep my OfficeFileCache, and especially I want to keep cached files for the default 14 days. But I want the cache to be built on the E: drive.

    So my question boils down to: How do I tell my system to build the OfficeFileCache on the E: drive instead of the C: drive?

    By the way: I already tried to modify the system registry as suggested here: Redirecting Unfortunately the key OfficeCacheLocation does not seem to be respected by Office 2016 or the Next Generation OneDrive Sync Client, neither in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\15.0\Common\Internet nor in the ...\16.0\... one.
