Onedrive's executables in the firewall

Please make Onedrive's executables permanent, like onedrive.exe is for firewall rules.

Upon every update the path changes, it is already bad that windows apps suffer from it.

    WFC's has fixed it by creating a wildcard and allowing exe in the trusted directory.

    It also works by allowing exe, but I would advise against it, malware could abuse it.

    Do not put personal information like phone numbers or email addresses in your posts! That simply invites spam and scammers.

    Please do provide contextual information on how your computer (Mac, PC?) is set up to sync with OneDrive.
