I'm having a really frustrating issue with Microsoft OneDrive automatically syncing my files between my personal OneDrive and my university OneDrive. Every time I install video games on my personal account, they show up on my university account, which gets them deleted by the admin because of obvious reasons. I really don't want to delete either account since I use my laptop for school and personal stuff. Is there any way to stop this syncing so I can keep my files separate? It also creates problems when I try to install mods since my laptop has two game folders now, and I'm confused about where to place the files. I've lost save files after messing with them, and I've wasted hours uninstalling and reinstalling everything. If anything I said doesn't make sense, please ask, and I'll clarify. Thanks!

You should have two separate OneDrive folders—one for personal use and one for your Uni account. Just make sure to save anything personal in the 'Personal' OneDrive folder. You can easily spot them in your file explorer; there should be one with '-personal' and the other with your university's name or domain.
I've tried doing that, but it just automatically downloads everything to my uni account, which is how I ended up with two folders for my games.
