RussW1341 that feature is locked out for my particular need by administrators. However, I can create a form in my personal one drive and it will accept uploads. Sorry but this is the best I can tell you at this time.

roblseaman thanks for getting back. After I posted this, I did some digging and asked around.
The error that seems to come from all this is "Sharing by link is not enabled on the web, site, or tenant" and the way around this is to add the form to a group instead of just creating it outright where it will post stuff to your OneDrive.
Of course, this means management of who can be in that group, but I suppose that would be the case with sharing files and folders on your OneDrive as well. Necessary steps for security I guess.
