OneDrive decided to kick on after an overnight update and uploaded some projects and vst plugins to the cloud. Apparently, the files weren't accessible except via the cloud, so I lost a few hours re-downloading my folders before I could do anything. I don't know if I've ever been more furious over technology that I theoretically owned.

I got a PC in order to eventually go back to Linux, where at least I know that when something goes wrong, it's generally my own fault and somewhat easy to troubleshoot. Unfortunately, the plugins I've been using only have Windows and Mac versions. If I had done a bit more research, I probably would have just gone with an apple device.
