@dgar It's not just a privacy/control issue. I've literally had programming students stuck because the compiler complained about their code being in a non-ASCII-named folder. File Explorer showed only ASCII in the file path.
The problem? The Documents folder was secretly inside OneDrive, and although it was called "Documents" everywhere in the UI, the real folder name in OneDrive was in Chinese (because of language settings).
And all along, nobody knew it was anything but a normal folder.
