Been helping with multiple friends with their laptops. Windows 11 systems and the directories are all fucked up. Windows wants everything synced to Onedrive and so when you click on downloads or something it goes to onedrive's downloads and so forth. It's fucking hell I have to delete onedrive and find \documents again and try to pin it in the file explorer side panel to make it so it's useful again.

Isn't this operating system supposed to be noob friendly? If they figure out how to go back to windows 10 22h2 then they can probably find out where the directories are already.

Btw, all these computers are stock and not modified.

Mum: In Word.

It got so much worse with the heavy suggesting of OneDrive and Microsoft intentionally misleading people into thinking they've successfully clicked out of using OneDrive.

Seriously, why isn't it as simple as a Steam>Screenshots with folders by game? I have to google it every time it comes up.

No, the android thing is fucked. I have no idea where Firefox saves shit to and god help me if I want one app to see files downloaded by another app. VLC isn't even allowed to see where Newpipe saves files to on my phone. Syncthing isn't even allowed to write files to the sd card. It's all stupid fucked and why I'm making sure to get a GrapheneOS or LineageOS compatible phone next.

Just don't look where iOS apps save their stuff.

  1. Re-open the application
  2. Save empty xocument
  3. Look where it's saving

Or just Save As and copy the location that it opens to.

This isn't going away because most users are raised on tablets nowadays and fewer people than you expect understand directory trees.
