Windows 10: How do I transfer a file from one PC to another through OneDrive when the OneDrive folder...

I'm trying to send an Outlook pst file from PC1 to PC2. The OneDrive folder name on PC1 is "Tom - Personal" while the OneDrive folder name on PC2 is "OneDrive - Personal". When I copy the pst file on PC1 to its OneDrive folder, the file does not appear on the PC2 OneDrive folder. I suspect it's because the two folders have different names. Is it possible to change the name "Tom" on the PC1 folder to "OneDrive", and would that solve the problem?

OneDrive - Bait and switch (but to what?)

Google Drive offers 17GB free, I see no discernible reason to bother with OneDrive's crippled storage capacity.

EDIT: For a painless transfer, I used microsoft's SyncToy to do a daily backup of DropBox/OneDrive items nightly at 4PM to a Google Drive folder. Once I had finished setting up my phone's automatic backup and had my work flow transferred, I just stopped the auto-backup script and uninstalled OneDrive/DropBox and carried on using Google Drive. Switching cloud storage service isn't remotely arduous.

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.

Anyone know how to remove "OneDrive - For Business" from the Explorer navigation panel? I've tried just about every registry modification, and windows policy for "Onedrive" but they only seem to work for the consumer product, not for onedrive for business.

The onedrive product alone is so damn annoying and continues to load itself upon startup, even when it's explicitly remove from startup. It continues to automatically load and unload itself from within the startup folder... while I'm actively watching it load itself into the startup folder.
