This action from Microsoft fits into a larger pattern where big tech companies cleverly (or not so cleverly) promote their services and subscriptions to users. It isn’t only about Microsoft; there have been instances of Google doing something similar with Google Photos and its storage plans.

I have disabled and uninstalled it, but office 365 still enforces it as the default save as location, so now when I use the dialogue, the system hangs for 30 seconds. Even disabled it in the policy management, but no dice.
@viking @Audacious Wise Registry Cleaner may help here. It’s like the old ccleaner but without the spying and complaints to buy. The issue is most likely registry related.
Oh nice, thanks! Will give it a shot.
