OneDrive should as standard sync the entire documents folder. I however believe you can set it to selective sync and choose what folders to sync, you then need to sync everything besides the settings folder and I think that will accomplish what you seek.
Hi Carb, thanks for the reply.
Yeah I tried that, only thing is Windows 10 now deletes the local files and folders that I choose not to sync with OneDrive.
They still exist on the "cloud" but not on my local Documents folder. So my only bet here is really change the location of the Settings folder to another drive/folder.

I can think of a way to move the folder, which is using a symbolic link, but still think Onedrive would sync it.
The only other thing I can think of is to lower the bandwidth Onedrive is allowed to use. I've found this guide for you if that solution interests you:

Hey @Carbonic
Thanks a lot for your reply. Yeah I didn't try the SymLink option because I think that would work just like a regular folder. So I went with the Policy option to limit the upload bandwidth of OneDrive and marked that as the answer.
On another note, I was using Mantle as my renderer, and THAT was basically the culprit here. Everytime the game launched a new map, it would add to a CACHE folder in the BF4 Settings folder.
The moment I changed it back to DX11, that wasnt an issue anymore because now it's only changing a few bytes in the in the settings files and not creating huge 60+ Mb files of Mantle cache.
Best regards,
Leandro
Glad to hear it worked out 🙂
