    Even when File History does work it's still unreliable, For some reason it never backs up some folders in my local OneDrive folder despite the files being there since they are backed up by Reflect.

    I agree, File History only seems reliable for the Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures and Videos folders (non-One Drive storage local folders); although on occasion, I have seen it miss some files in those folders as well.

    I don't use File History on it's own. I'm using it in addition to my other on-site backup.
