Windows 10: can't delete link on onedrive desktop

I have a link to MS Edge on my desktop that I can't delete. When I click on it, nothing happens. When I try to delete it, I get a pop-up talking about error code 0x80070780. There is another Edge shortcut that works fine.


The broken one is located in my personal Onedrive desktop and the good one is in the public desktop.


How do I delete this broken link?

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.
