    One Drive and multiple disks


    Windows 10 - Latest version.
    My main data drive has a folder OneDrive which synchronizes with the cloud OneDrive. I have also set OneDrive to synchronize with a couple of folders on another drive. The problem is that these files are now duplicated on the OneDrive folder in the data drive.
    eg
    D: drive contains OneDrive root folder with several subfolders - Folder A, Folder B, etc. These synchronize with cloud OneDrive
    E: drive does not contain a OneDrive folder but I have synchronized Folder X with the cloud OneDrive.

    Problem is that Folder X that lives on drive E: is now duplicated on the OneDrive folder on drive D.

    Can this be prevented?

    :)

    Disk Drive isn't being detected

    I had my disk drive working and then I did the stupid thing of unpluging it to move some cords around that were in they way and now it wont work. Any suggestions? Ive tried unpluging it and repluging it in multiple times, still get nothing.
