Hi All, When I open a Microsoft Project File from my OneDrive (One drive synced to the cloud from MS Teams - Work & School App), I check on the progress and run out some reports, then close the file without saving. OneDrive immediately starts uploading a version with ~Admin added to the file name. There is no need for this to happen. Why is this happening, how do I deactivate whatever it is to make it stop?? I want to ensure that OneDrive does not create any duplicate files whatsoever, irrespective of the file type. OneDrive has been very frustrating to say the least and I cannot find much assistance to ensure duplicate files do not upload. Please help!

I have spent days compiling all of my documents and images from my phone, computer, and internet I am now swimming in duplicate files.

This is the year 2021 and we the consumers deserve better than to be presented with this as an actual response from any company's Technical Support that creates and manages such vast amounts of data.
