In my case, I created a new folder named One_drive in my home directory. Click on the + sign and choose a folder or create a new one where you’ll mount the OneDrive. Please make sure you have synced all files about your personal. It will delete all un-download files and you may need to delete other files in sync folders manually. For your concern, you could unlink your personal account in OneDrive. Completely uninstall OneDrive as you have tried. On the first run, it gives a strange looking empty interface. Reset OneDrive, then check whether OneDrive works well. Once you install it, search for OneDriver in the menu and start it from here. On Fedora, you can add this COPR: sudo dnf copr enable jstaf/onedriver To install OneDriver on Ubuntu 20.04 (and Linux Mint 20 series), you can use this PPA by the developer of OneDriver: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:jstaf/onedriverįor Ubuntu 21.04, you may use it by downloading the DEB file from its PPA. Oh! You can also mount multiple OneDrive accounts. OneDriver may feel a little bit slower and resource consuming in the beginning, but it gets better eventually. I was under the impression that they will only be downloaded when I open them.Īnother thing is that Nautilus builds thumbnail cache initially. I did notice that in Nautilus file manager on GNOME, it downloads the images present in the current folder automatically.

If you make any changes to files locally, it gets reflected on the OneDrive if you are connected to the internet.

The files become read-only if you are not connected to the internet. Which means that you can access the opened files offline as well. The files you open in the mounted OneDrive also get downloaded on the system. However, it does provide a kind of hybrid approach here. It mounts the OneDrive files on a local mount point instead. Please keep in mind that it does not sync files in the same way OneDrive does on the Windows system. OneDriver is a free and open source tool that allows you to mount your OneDrive files on your Linux system.
