  1. How to copy a directory from a OneDrive user account to another OneDrive user account


    My family purchased the Office 365 subscription with provision for six 6 1TB OneDrive user accounts. I am wanting to transfer my copy of the family photos to another family member. I don't want to download all the photos from my account and then upload them at 1/10th the speed to the other account. Is there a fast way to do this without buying something or sharing my password with 3rd party software? So far I the best solution I have found is to share my copy of the directory with the other user. The other user sees the copy of my directory in their "Shared" area. Then the other user

    :)

  2. 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.

    How to uninstall OneDrive and close 2 user accounts

    I went to Setting >.Apps > OneDrive and pressed Uninstall, then I rebooted
    and found OneDrive had been uninstalled. There was a Temporary OneDrive
    account left in the root of C drive, I deleted it

    - - - Updated - - -

    When I go to Control Panel > Users I find the user account I created which is
    Kenneth Cavanaugh, Administrator, but when I go to User Profiles I find the
    name KCAV-NB65\kcav1_m0r3hql. I wonder where it came from.

    In C:\users there are two user names kcav1 and kcav1_m0r3hql

    What if
    • I changed the User Profile name to kcav1
    • I booted in safemode and deleted kcav1_m0r3hql from C:\users

    Would Kcav1 have the correct content?

    How to copy a directory from a OneDrive user account to another OneDrive user account

    Local User Account and OneDrive


    From what I have read, in order to use OneDrive (integrated in the OS, not the web browser), you have to use a MSA account to login to the computer in order to use OneDrive.

    Is there a way to use a Local user account, while still using OneDrive without using a web browser? Even if it means I have to login everytime I open the drive from Windows Explorer? I plan on installing Win10 and using a local account to use the computer (I have a MSA account that I can use for OneDrive, but don't plan on using it to login to the computer itself).

    Thanks in advance
