Hi @jarrid.kleinfelter,
You can upload and download within the default odrive folder with the free version (select “open odrive folder” from the odrive menu to navigate there).
Please refer to the usage guide for more details: Set Up Your odrive
With the free version you cannot create “sync to odrive” folders, which allow you to sync any existing local folder to a remote location. Please refer to this section of the usage guide for more details: Manage Sync
For a full rundown of free vs premium, take a look at this post:
