    Controlling OneDrive's uploading behavior


    Scenario:There are a number of programs that store files in the OneDrive "Documents" Folder. Bad design, there is no need for those particular files to be there.The programs in question don't have an option to relocate those files more bad design and I've found no reference in the registry or configuration files that specifies where those files are stored.I have no need to share these particular files across my computers. Not everything on this machine is needed or even useful on other machines.I have accumulated enough files to exceed OneDrive's mind-bogglingly huge 5gb limit. Still mor

  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.
