      Because it makes its own damn file paths as default and tries to put everything in rnr cloud causing people to lose track of files

        I hated that shit at my last job. Constantly trying to save shit locally only to realize I accidentally saved something on the cloud.

        I have a hard drive you fucks. I want to point there by default. No I don’t want you reading all my shit.

        And break applications that made the weird assumption that a file just saved was accessible where it was saved. My solution (after a wtf moment because it wasn’t obvious what was going on) was to try to pull it locally, then use the OneDrive path to pull it.

        Except that didn’t work either. I guess scripts pulling from the cloud looks like a security issue.

        So I just reverted back to the user doing saving and loading manually. Can’t have nice things.

      I don’t handle licensing, so don’t know how that portion is setup exactly… but from the actual use standpoint… we don’t need or want anything to sync with third party cloud services unless absolutely necessary.

      We have 5 properties across the state and operate our own redundant file servers and synchronous connections. We don’t need or want cloud backup, it just adds additional complications and failure points. Not to mention opening up yet another possible attack vector.
