 The Cloud Drive has been optimized to disable preview for images and other file types that use this functionality. This is because the file needs to be downloaded to create the preview which of course would negate the whole purpose of using the drive. It is recommended to keep previews off.  The Cloud Drive has been optimized to disable preview for images and other file types that use this functionality.

 The Cloud Drive has a setting for deleting the cache when the PC is shut down.  That setting also applies when the user logs out.  For most use cases this setting should not be activated.  If it is activated then you run the risk of the cache being deleted while it contains files that have not yet been uploaded. The Cloud Drive has a setting for deleting the cache when the PC is shut down.  That setting also applies when the user logs out.  For most use cases this setting should not be activated.  If it is activated then you run the risk of the cache being deleted while it contains files that have not yet been uploaded.

-The Cloud Tools are not certified for use with ARM processors.+Updates by Microsoft to OneDrive and AutoSave can lead to interference with regards to saving files that are opened from the Cloud Drive. 
 + 
 +AutoSave is enabled on a per file basis and starts to automatically save files back to OneDrive. At this point files are no longer being saved back to the drive even when an explicit save is done, they will be save to OneDrive. 
 + 
 +To prevent this it is recommended to turn on AutoSave to OneDrive off when working with the Drive. 
 + 
 +To turn it off as a default for all Office documents change the "Office" setting in OneDrive, right-click the OneDrive icon. Office Tab. Uncheck the box.

 +\\  \\  
 +Admin's can also use a Windows policy setting to turn off AutoSave by default. There are separate policy settings for Excel, PowerPoint, and Word. 
 +For example, the policy setting for Word is named "Turn AutoSave OFF by default in Word" and can be found under the "Microsoft Office 2016\AutoSave" Policy Path. 
 +\\  \\  
 +To use these policy settings, make sure to [[https://www.microsoft.com/download/details.aspx?id=49030|download]] the latest Administrative Template files (ADMX/ADML) from the Microsoft Download Center.
