    Windows 10 - OneDrive

    Right click on the app and one of the properties has an option to not automatically start it. Uncheck, restart the computer, and it should stop. If you want to go another step further, find the OneDrive app in the start menu, right click on it and uninstall.

    If that is still insufficient, there is a batch uninstaller for OneDrive available online. I can copy the code here if you need it.

    OneDrive Not Showing Scanned File

    Thanks for the reply. Just the file name shows in the Windows Search with the correct path to the file on the OneDrive. The
    Search feature on the OneDrive does not find it . It must be somewhere since I can access it by clicking on the Windows Search list item. I will try sending up another scanned document the same way.

    Error - Windows fax and scan cannot run as it cannot access your documents folder. Please ensure that Windows fax and scan can access that folder.

    Thanks for the reply.

    1. Scansoft PaperPort 11. It looks like it does not recognize my Brother MFC 7440N laser printer. The printer works just fine trying to print documents.

    2. Win 10 changed the folder permissions. Most were then read only but I fixed them one at a time.

    3. Might have missed some folders.

    4. Windows Fax and Scan cannot run as it cannot access your documents folder. Please ensure that Windows Fax and Scan can access that folder.

    I followed your suggested steps but it did not work.
