    The same URL now: Microsoft gives in and lets you close OneDrive on Windows without explaining yourself

    Update November 10th, 4:45AM ET: Microsoft has removed the dialog forcing users to fill out a survey when quitting OneDrive, and reverted to the original prompt. In a statement sent to The Verge, Microsoft says:

    Between Nov. 1 and 8, a small subset of consumer OneDrive users were presented with a dialog box when closing the OneDrive sync client, asking for feedback on the reason they chose to close the application. This type of user feedback helps inform our ongoing efforts to enhance the quality of our products.

    The story below is unchanged.

      Yeah okay microsoft whatever you say. The only thing you’ve ever been interested in ‘enhancing the quality of’ is how tight the leash around your users necks is. At this point I would respect you more if you were just honest about your corporate assholery.

      “We don’t give a fuck about you as a user and want to test how far we can screw with you just for fun, enjoy your 15.99$/month subscription based service to reduce the new 15 second advertisements that show up whenever you launch a program on windows 12, to one per hour. Slop it up, you retarded cattle.”
