Windows 10: Get rid of OneDrive "Back up files" reminder in Settings

Running insider build 19023.1, there is a reminder on the top of the settings app to "Back up files" with OneDrive. This appears to be the feature to back up Documents, Desktop, Pictures automatically with OneDrive. I don't and never will want to do this, so is there a way to disable the reminder?

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.

Hi,

To address your concern, we suggest that you check the Settings if the notification for reminders is turned on.

• Go to Settings.
• Select Notifications & actions on the left side.
• Turn on Show alarms, reminders, and incoming VoIP calls on the lock screen.

If the issue persists, perform SFC scan to repair corrupted system files. You may refer to this
