Probably downloaded it from ChatGPT, that's why it's in the downloads folder.

Default location of the downloads folder becoming OneDrive wouldn't suprise me at all

Agree. The default download location on iOS and padOS is iCloud and it's pretty clear that Microsoft is chasing Apple's monetization model.

That sounds like hell, imagine running an exe from the cloud

I did a quick install of windows (last year I think?) and it sorted everything into a onedrive folder. documents, pictures, videos, downloads, all that stuff, looked normal from the file explorer, but was sneakily placed into a onedrive folder. it went something like c:/users/me/onedrive/. didn't realize what it had done until like 2 days later and it gave me some popup about not being able to upload. i don't even have a onedrive account; it just decided that was how it should be done. no idea what, if anything, it actually uploaded.

now if i have to install windows i have a script from privacy.sexy i run before doing anything else. havent had that happen again yet. still, probably best to assume anything on a windows machine is not private.
