When I am in some web apps and try to download a document my OneDrive does not appear in my Chromebook files app. I see downloads and google drive but not OneDrive. This creates an extra step to go back into OneDrive and upload the file. Has anyone else had this experience?

Love this software for ChromeOS. However, look into mounting this in a shareable area to access the files via the Linux terminal for example and some how adding offline capability. Other than these points, love the software, keep up the good work.
