    Green check marks on icons not going away


    For some reason, green check marks randomly appeared on my icons. This is weird because I don't even have OneDrive on my PC and it's not open in the tasks on the bottom right. I looked in the control panel and OneDrive hadn't been reinstalled either. I checked the OneDrive folder and it does look like they were synced but I have no idea how and when I check my OneDrive account online the files aren't there. I have had OneDrive uninstalled for many months and I can't figure out why its randomly doing this at all

    :)

    Removing OneDrive Green Check Mark Icons in Windows 10 file explorer


    Hi,
    Does anyone know if one can remove the green check marks in file explorer that indicate that a file is synced on OneDrive?
    If one is using list, details or small icon view, there is no way to visually see the file type.
    Thanks, Paul

    Desktop Icons Changing - Green Check Marks, Etc.

    I'm having problems with my Windows 10 desktop icons changing and being overlaid with little and sometimes large green check marks.
    They come and go on their own and sometime the icon will be overlaid with an X or completely covered with some other icon.
    Refresh clears the icon back to normal but then they will change again.

    Any ideas?
