Hi Art,
Thanks for clarifying. You can choose which files you want to share with which specific people. Only files you explicitly share or put in a public folder can be viewed by others; all other content will be private.

Reverse Sync. Anytime I modify a folder on my laptop hard drive, it should automatically sync to my OneDrive.

If not "One Product" ... at least One Way...
Here is my problem! Long text here.
Q: What is this "One" all of us discuss? And what is behind it?
Is it "One = Single" Product? or any "single" independent thing?
I struggle to understand this "ONE"...
A: There is no "one". :) Yet. But maybe it could be "One way" ...Windows is not just a kernel - it's a service too. It should provide necessary help to do your job - Like Cortana - when accessing some API's.
But what Cortana can do if there is no API to use?So here is my problem: Let's take…
