    Don't want OneDrive to automatically sync everything


    I was prompted by Windows: "Let finish setting up your device", and decided to just continue this time instead of pressing "remind me later". I have a desktop and a laptop linked to the same Microsoft email. Previously, they were not synced, as I wanted to keep them separate. If I did however want to access a document on my laptop from my PC, I would just copy that document into my "OneDrive-Personal" folder in file explorer. I must've changed some settings by accident because after I finished "setting up my device", everything started syncing and now I could see all my files from my desktop o

    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.

    Don't want OneDrive to automatically sync everything

    Prevent OneDrive from re-syncing everything after re-installing Windows 10

    The context is almost identical to that of Windows 8.1 move OneDrive to existing folder after OS reinstall, except I'm on Windows 10. I want to stop OneDrive from re-syncing everything after re-installing Windows 10 because the files are BIG and remain intact before and after OS reinstallation. Even the paths remain the same before and after (is still D:\OneDrive on my machine - the D drive is the same volume).

    I have searched on Google and found results like this or this, and no definitive answer was found.

    Is there a solution for W10?
