Add OneDrive/OS info to inline instructor notes #1398

Open ndporter opened 1 year ago

ndporter commented 1 year ago

The instructor notes have excellent detail on managing the complexities of finding desktop directories in various OS's with and without OneDrive, but I didn't realize those had been added. It would be great if someone took the time to convert those to inline notes in the Navigating Files and Directories lesson.

Is it worth modifying the episode and the notes to mention people they can find the directory located on their desktop, then 'drag and drop' it into their terminal and it will automatically put the path in - this gets around pretty much all the different configuration issues and confusion that happens at the start of the lesson. Gets around the multiple OneDrives and the use of spaces in many of the enterprise onedrives.

I also believe OneDrive is now the default for Windows 11 users.
