Is that a configuration issue? I think what I did was went into the settings and tailored it. Shut off desktop, decided which folders and where. Then it's all good. I recommend it as a first option for multi unit use.

Yeah it depends on the group policies that hit the machine set up by their company. Likely when a new user logs into the machine the image/policy isn't using C:\users%Username% as the default file location, but rather c:\users%username%\onedrive.

Thus creating a local copy of said files they create, and auto backing them up to OneDrive so they have backups and local copies.

The standard user directory still exists so if someone saves something there, it will show up in recents and then they will keep saving things there, and it won't back up. That's my guess
