    I gotta be honest, man - it seems like something’s fucked with your OS.

    Moving files locally has nothing to do with OneDrive. Once you move the files within a OneDrive-synced folder, the service will just update their location info and re-sync them. It doesn’t “desync -> move -> sync”, it’s literally a local move.

    Have you tried moving similar amounts of data in non-synced folders?

      Yup, only happens in folders that are synced, I actually reinstalled Windows specifically because of the issues I was seeing.

      I don’t know what exactly it’s doing but it annoys the shit out of me. I should probably use process Explorer or something to check what is going on but I’m too lazy.

      I moved some pictures a little earlier and it did it again.

        Did you run any “debloaters” or such after the reinstall?

            If you never used Linux before, Arch can be difficult. As with all Linux, many things randomly just break for no reason at all, but with Arch YOU can break a lot more too. Then there’s the AUR package repository which has been breached and infected with viruses a couple of times recently.

            Still, if you use your PC for games, I can very much recommend Garuda Linux, which is based on Arch (meaning: the entirety of the phenomenal Arch Wiki will be helpful), but has a couple of tricks, like the Rani app, which help with the day-to-day maintenance of the OS massively. I’m using it and it’s pretty good, although you may need to tweak a bunch of things first.

              I’m sys eng/devops/whatever marketing terminology they decide to use, so I’m okay with running Linux, it’s more annoying that I’ll have to probably dual boot to be able to use the Autodesk applications I use.

              But thank you for the suggestion, I’ll give it a look.
