A Microsoft software update forced some users to answer a survey before they closed OneDrive.
It told The Verge in a statement: "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.
Perhaps Microsoft hoped the poll would reveal why some users don't like a system that offers only an all-or-nothing approach to storing files.

X users were also not umimpressed with the change, with one pointing out that using Microsoft was "quickly becoming an abusive relationship."
