Don't worry, they will fix that. In windows 12. 
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

That's gotta be the first time that anyone's suggested it would be a good thing to have one's head in the cloud!

Ahem - isn't that kinda-sorta-the-point for online-only files?
|
|
|
|
|
Exactly, that's what I want!
I have my home PC that the user files/documents etc. are fully sync to onedrive.
My laptop, I do not want any sync from cloud to laptop. I just want to access them online only like I can used to do in Windows8.1

At least you can use OneDrive at all. I had to disable it because of some bug where it keeps resetting permissions on my Pictures and Documents folders so they become read-only...

What happens when you click on the links?

I'll forward it to you.. You let me know OK?

Nothing one would think; pictures cannot contain links. And yes, great way to prevent your mail from being checked on keywords.
So, I'd guess that the entire picture points to the same link

If you pay me $3.995 I will make sure that you receive no such crap ever. Pay me before midnight EST and you will get a $1.000 refund and a free bumper sticker:
I SAY NO TO SCAMMERS !
Life is too shor

I am willing to do this same work for only $7,995 USD and I guarantee a larger refund of $1,500 and bumper sticker plus a small yard sign.

According to the email (image), they have given you at least four opportunities to have a bad day.

Reminds me of something about 22 years ago, on a Unix terminal at a University:
A mischievous student had written a program which looked exactly like the login screen; when someone logged in, it would capture the username and password, and store them secretly, then give a 'wrong username/password' error message, and then display the actual login screen. The student would think that he had initially entered the password wrongly.
It was heard that writing such a program on a Unix terminal really required a very good knowledge of Unix internals, and we also heard that this student was dismissed from the University, and immediately hired by a computer security company.
Faintly remember that this is termed as masquerading.

Overnight spAmazon sent no fewer than 3 identical emails nagging me to update the CC I am using for my single Subscribe and Save order (a program that lets me get something sent at a fixed interval in turn for a discount - presumably because it lets them use cheaper shipping) because it will expire at the end of next month. 3 emails on the same subject in <6 hours would be excessive in any case; but adding extra elephants to the fail is that the card in question is an Amazon rewards card; and the bank behind it hasn't sent me a new card yet.
Based on past experience with the bank, I expect to get the new card in a few weeks. OTOH the timing of when this card was scheduled to expire is strongly suggestive that it was motivated by the first phase deadline for switching over to a chip card; which means that any snafu in that pipeline could delay it. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Yesterday spAmazon made me walk 5 miles to receive my package, and I got two identical emails (along with promotions as usual) stating the delay.

Today Amazon had the postperson hand me a brand new waterproof hat a full 3 days ahead of the expected delivery date.

No, haven't used a scanner in 10 years. Haven't had a virus either.

If you are the type that runs code without knowing what it does, open executables, then yes, it works "most of the time".
For companies it is different; they'll need to have one. Especially large companies would come under fire if they lost all their data over an old and outdated virus. And in large companies there is always a manager that opens the executable.
Always.

As far as you know.

Let me rephrase; there is no process running without my knowledge, and any communication is logged (using WinPCap).
Virusses require resources and rights to spread

Not the same;
You cannot guarantee no one is in the house if you don't know what windows are open, which doors are locked - but if you close all, then someone would have to tear down a wall to get in there.

There's this movie, I forgot which one, but these guys are trying to rob a bank or something.
The crooks use your reasoning so their solution, make sure they're already inside when all doors and windows get locked.
The next morning, when everything opens up, they simply walk out with the loot
