  1. Can I have a OneDrive for work and also a personal one?


    We are starting to use OneDrive at work, and I also have another MIcrosoft account personally.

    Can I have multiple OneDrive systems? If so, how should they interact?

    I would love to have a single OneDrive, with one base folder for my company (with many sub-folders which are shared with various co-workers) and another base folder for personal files (with many sub-folders which are shared with family or friends).

    Is this possible? If so, how do I set it up?

    Thanks, Ted

    :)

  3. 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 Personal Missing 'Green Ticks'

    Hi James,

    The issue that you encountered regarding the program is may be caused by some files or components that are missing on the system. To sort out your concern, we suggest that you
    reset OneDrive using the Run commands. This process will restart the program to its working state and eliminate any software conflicts. To do this, you may follow the steps below:

    • Click Start, type Run, and then press Enter.
    • Copy and paste the following command into the Run window and click
      OK.
      • %localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\onedrive.exe /reset
    • Make sure that the OneDrive icon in the notification area of the taskbar will disappear and reappear after a minute or two.
    • If the icon doesn’t reappear after a few minutes, copy this command:
      %localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\onedrive.exe
      and paste it into the
      Run window, and then click OK.
    • Once you’re done, check if the issue persists.

    Let us know if the suggestion works for you.
