It's been happening in my workplace already, and, boy, is it annoying. I keep resetting to "local save" but the Great Beast keeps putting it back on cloud.

I have a personal user license and this has been true for at least a year or two. I was eventually able to change the default save location to my hard drive but it was a huge pain.

Microsoft 365 has "one Drive" as default location for several months now.
Does the "automatic saving" function save the data to onedrive even of you choose another Location afterwards?
That's like the upload of every mail and accoint credentials to Microsoft servers when switching to the new Outlook. 🙄

Another reason for uninstall.
