Hi,
I would like to copy large amount of Onedrive online only files to \\somenetwork\share in Windows 10 environment. However, simple copying in Total Commander is very unreliable, since it first downloads the file, make a local-copy ("downloads on demand") and only then the file is copied to \share. Naturally, free space of local drive decreases rapidly (and when one wants to restore free space, one must make the files "online only" after copying, only then the local copies are deleted).
Is there some way to copy Onedrive online only files to \share without making a local copy? I. e. without touching local hard drive?

AFAIK it is not possible.Is there some way to copy Onedrive online only files to \share without making a local copy? I. e. without touching local hard drive?
In fact "online only files" means they ore only available at the remote server, not on local drive.
This means the server has to do the work.
But the Onedrive server does not know any credentials of "\\somenetwork\share in Windows 10 environment", they are available locally only.
This actually requires to have the files local before copy them to the share.

Afaik if you use the Cloud plugin there is no local or offline available copy of all files.
A file is read from the cloud server and then copied to the share.

It depends on the caching settings of Internet Explorer, since the cloud plugin uses the Internet* functions for downloads.
