    How can I backup everything on my Windows laptop to OneDrive except photos. I need to keep...


    I currently use my iPhones to take pictures and have photos saved in iCloud so I can see them on numerous devices, namely another 2 other iPhones & my PC. I now have an iPad and can see all my pictures on it. However, I want to back-up my Documents on OneDrive so I can access them on other computers, etc. via my Microsoft 365 account. OneDrive wants me to remove iCloud before it will sync ANYTHING & back it up. It will not allow me to back-up my Documents. Why not?

    :)

    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.
