Don’t be ridiculous. I need the full sync option to start some tools I have placed on OneDrive. A web browser doesn’t support that!

I need the full tools too, I'm just doing the best I can do with what I have.
The fact that it hasn't been fixed yet did make it seem that that is how Microsoft wanted it.I was asked how I was working around it and this is how.

Not sure why you're saying I'm ridiculous. That was a little rude. I was just trying to help.
