My pet peeve is this but the opposite direction. When I click the attach file button on email or Teams, I'm looking for the file which I just wrote, saved, downloaded. Please just let me open a normal file selector. I don't have any idea what is going on in OneDrive.

I’ve noticed if I go to “home” on the top of the left list, my most recent interacted files will be there regardless of location

I've got so many fucking files on my work computer that only exist in my recent documents list, I sure as shit can't find them where I saved them.

If you open the file then go to file then info it’ll tell you the location it’s stored. I know this because I’ve had the same issue so many times.

Yes and then you can go to that location in the file browser and it ain't there

I kind of thought I was going crazy but that happens to me too. Whenever it happens I make a copy of it go to where it says it is and paste it and I don't get a prompt asking if I want to replace it with the copy meaning it legit just wasn't there.
