Or just uninstall Windows and replace it with an operating system that is actually designed to give you freedom, privacy, security and security. The whole purpose of Windows is to spy on you while also showing you ads and annoying you with other proprietary Microsoft garbage software like Edge, Teams or OneDrive.
I have my PC at home and a PC in my workshop. Sometimes it’s nice to sit at home and work on designs, then go to my workshop and they’re synced and ready to use so I can just open them. It works really well. Is there an alternative? I don’t want to have to download the files, I like everything being synced seamlessly.
Takes a little more technical know-how, but you could take an old laptop, put Linux on it, and make a home document server. A document server is basically what OneDrive, Google Drive, etc are, just with the benefit that it’s private and free besides the cost of utilities.
Just uninstall OneDrive. You can now, and it’s a cancer anyway… While you’re at it, nuke teams as well.

You could also use proton drive. They are a privacy focused company.
You can try Syncthing.
It doesn’t need a seperate server, messing with port forwarding, etc, just a similar setup to onedrive.
Plus, since it’s just syncing files, all your data is private, and you don’t need to worry about buying more cloud storage space.
Feel free to message me if you need help with it.

Basic OneDrive is free and easy and requires 0 technical knowledge nor a dedicated computer to host it. And it always works and never needs repairs
I’m all about privatizing e v e r y t h I n g but you’re suggesting a big undertaking
then port forward.
doesn’t seem very complicated to me
