    It appears to have zilched my dekstop folder and taken over my documents folder, leaving my bread and butter adobe apps in a total mess. ONe drive found an old one drive folder on my system and decided to re-link it. I have unliked one drive from the pc, I'm about to start patching together what I canThis really should be a class action lawsuit. How can it destroy the local desktop folder and replace it with one from an old system that is still online? Its just woeful.

    one drive has destroyed my windows install

    cant install windows 8 on my cruciall ssd drive

    Yeah, that was going to be my next suggestion. You can actually access the command prompt from inside the Windows installer, then run DiskPart and do a Clean command on the drive.
