That is a good point. However, when I am working on my thesis or even a piece of code that resides on OneDrive folder, I usually pause sync for at least 24 hours. This is because OneDrive will often lock files or otherwise interrupt running

Well I find it unfair and condescending of you to suggest I, as a busy parent, should not watch TV :) I did not ask anyone not to pay subscription fees. It is just a matter of priority. Even before becoming a parent, I would find it hard to
