Windows 10: How can I "unhide" onedrive from file explorer

I followed Microsoft's suggestion on how to disable one drive and as part of that where it has you hide it I right clicked on the onedrive icon that shows on the left side of file explorer (the navigation pane), chose properties and hid the folder near attributes (the option where it hides all subfolders etc).

How can i unhide it? I've tried the obvious things but it doesn't come back to file explorer on the navigation pane.

My favourite is MP3Tag, google it.

 

Open 'OneDrive' folder from the Start menu/AllApps list.

 

IIt should not be hidden unless you deleted it.

 

okay it opens but it does not go back to left side of file explorer, it is still hidden there

 

no it was hidden not deleted please read first post

 

What i did was i hid the onedrive listing (via properties/hide) from the navigation pane in file explorer. Just want to bring it back there.

 

Can't you Click on Start, type onedrive then right click on OneDrive and select Pin to Start?

 

Yes that is no problem. But what I want to do is have it listed in the navigation pane in file explorer like it was before i hid it. It is not reappearing no matter what i do. I'm not even going to use onedrive and am going to completely disable it but I just want to understand - how i can "unhide" something that has been hidden in the navigation pane. Showing hidden folders doesn't list it back there. I want to relist it there in the navigation pane in file explorer. How can i unhide it?

I did try one of the tutorials that can remove and bring back but it doesn't work. I think that it because it is hidden from there.

 

I don't see how you hid it through 'Properties' in the first place.
Try re-instating it using Winaero Tweaker.

 

Okay I'm right where you are and it does not offer onedrive in the right side as an option.

 

What I had done was this (applying it to the onedrive icon in the nav pane of file explorer):


Open File Explorer, right-click OneDrive, and then click Properties.
On the General tab, next to Attributes, check the Hidden box. This hides OneDrive from File Explorer.


Turn off or uninstall OneDrive - OneDrive

 

Is OneDrive still installed in Programs and Features?

 

Yes microsoft onedrive.
