The location where your document is being saved is likely synced with OneDrive. Your IT team may have applied a Known Folder Move (KFM) policy, which automatically redirects and syncs your Desktop, Documents, and Pictures folders to the cloud. This ensures backup and accessibility, but it also means that any changes you make are uploaded to OneDrive or SharePoint by default.
Please check where your documents are being saved on your computer. If they are in one of these three folders (Desktop, Documents, or Pictures), copy or move them to another local folder such as Downloads. Doing so will break the sync, and you should no longer see this issue.
