It starting filling up my desktop with thousands of files and was going to fill up more than all the memory on my computer, so I clicked to tell it to stop. Well, unless you have up to 2 TB of files already up there, then it doesn't just sync files up to iCloud Drive it syncs all your desktop files from your other computers and from iCloud down to that computer. I thought sure, that's a great security measure. It then asked if I wanted to sync my files to iCloud.
It is really dumb that it moves all of your files from the desktop into a folder. Monterey moves all your desktop files to a folder - Don't try stopping the icloud drive syncing Just upgraded an older laptop to OS Monterey yesterday.

How to solve this issue so that space taken on disk is equal to the size of the local file/ folder? Otherwise, my available disk space is effectively becoming half! I have checked it for another folder, and the result is the same. So it is taking up twice as much space on the disk. Is OneDrive keeping duplicate copies of the same folder in both Workspace and Macintosh volumes? Or is this how the used space is calculated, considering the local OneDrive files/folders to be tagged with both volumes? But the surprising thing is that the available space in the container (shared between the volumes) is decreased by 2.9 GB. Now, after this, the Workspace volume shows an increase of 1.45 GB in used space, and the Macintosh volume too shows an increase of 1.45 GB in used space. I opted to keep a folder available on the device. I tried to check this and observed something very surprising. Now when I opt for the "Always keep on This Device" option for a file or folder in my OneDrive, where (the original version) will it get stored? In the "Workspace" volume or in the Macintosh HD volume?
When I searched for the original folder, it was found in the "users" directory in the Macintosh HD volume. Now the OneDrive folder in the "Workspace" volume shows a sign indicating it is an alias. I have created a volume "Workspace" for keeping my work-related files and chose that "Workspace" volume for my OneDrive folder.
