I love my jobs implementation of onedrive. It copies files from my hardrive, erases the local copy, and then loses the remote version.

Just activate the option to keep a local copy, right click the folder your files are in and choose "keep local copy"

Thanks! It was "Always keep on this device" but I didn't know that was an option. I was able to fully download a folder where individual items could not be retrieved. Awesome!

Apple lets you do this with ebooks, then you turn off iCloud sync thinking it’ll just keep all the local copies you just individually downloaded…

nah deletes ‘em all
