So if I disable syncing, will I no longer be able to sync anything to my onedrive? Because I do use it for work and school purposes. Say if I moved everything to my desktop, and OneDrive was still on, and I open up the sims 4, will everything pop back into my onedrive again? Or will it remain out of my OneDrive?
@valley_joe1 If you disable automatic syncing but leave OneDrive enabled overall, you'll be able to manually sync whatever files you want. It just won't happen on its own. If you move your Sims 4 folder onto your desktop, the folder shouldn't be synced anymore, although OneDrive may still retain a copy (I'm not sure what happens here). But the game won't read the data in that folder anymore and will create a new one in Documents\Electronic Arts, which will also be auto synced unless you disable the feature.
Given the error you're seeing, it's pretty obvious that OneDrive's sync feature is causing problems, so the question is how to intervene in the way that's most convenient for you. Maybe you just disable auto sync while you play and reenable it later; maybe you leave it disabled and manually upload what you need. But you do have to change some setting, or you'll keep getting errors.
