Agreed. That OneDrive thingy my company foolishly employs is making the file ""manager"" only bigger, not better.

One of my favourite is how it overrules me in renaming a file. Half way into renaming it decides I will not rename it and just clears my editing, or exits editing mode. Refreshes or something, ruining what I do along the way. Renaming files is a hit or miss thing, unpridictable. Something pretty essential thing solved pretty well more than half a century ago, managed to be ruined by MS.

The business version of onedrive is just a shell around SharePoint which has a bunch of awkward character restrictions. This is the cause of that. I don't use consumer onedrive but I wouldn't be surprised if it doesn't do this.
