A utility to safely decouple OneDrive and migrate files back to local storage.
The user's frustration is a common issue for those who aren't tech-savvy: safely removing integrated cloud services like OneDrive without losing data or breaking file paths. A SaaS tool, perhaps called a 'Cloud Unlinker Wizard,' could automate the process of moving files from cloud-synced folders to local-only folders, ensuring data integrity and fixing shortcuts. This would address the very real fear of data loss. Expected revenue would be modest, likely as a one-time purchase utility in the $15-30 range or as part of a larger PC maintenance suite.

I don't know exactly what I did. I'm really frustrated. I was trying to get Onedrive off my computer as I am sick of constantly being overloaded with messages about not having enough storage
