Programming: No spaces in Proton Drive Desktop sync path ("My files" folder cannot be renamed)
The root "My files" sync directory where all files reside under contains a space which is problematic for development reasons.
Currently I have "D:\ProtonDrive\My files\Coding..." and this isn't ideal because it makes dealing with development files tedious in some cases. If "My files" could be renamed to without spaces, this would resolve the issue. The folder cannot be renamed due to Windows permissions (and doing so would probably break things anyway).
A symbolic link with a spaceless name (e.g. "MyFiles") cannot be created to work around this, again due to permissions (access denied).
Please allow us to rename the "My files" folder.
Thanks!

The "My files" is annoying and a nightmare for file structures. Please change this to be installed at root, or at the very least MyFiles (caps on the F).
