If you saved them to your OneDrive folder that isn’t setup to sync then you have a different situation where you’ll run into conflicts but you should be prompted of such.

Aside from my question above, and though this might need a separate thread, I realize I'm confused by the URL I see when accessing OneDrive in a browser (Chrome):
https://domain-my.sharepoint.com/personal/dave_domain_onmicrosoft_com/_layouts/15/onedrive.aspx?view=5
Could well be bad memory but I don't remember seeing "sharepoint" or "personal" or the other stuff. I thought the URL looked more like it does in Windows Explorer: "OneDrive - Company Name Inc." and that's it.
Guess I'm hoping that I can't find files because I'm looking in the wrong place. More SharePoint than OneDrive.
