  1. how to disable windows backup files to onedrive?


    The backup nearly deleted my other drives folders. I tried asking for help, only for it to be too simple and things I was already doing. I can't simply "change the folders" because when I attempt to, it will not let me. The option is grayed out for me. It simply will not allow me to stop. This is getting to the point where I might just nuke my entire Microsoft account so it will not do this. What am I supposed to do?

    :)

  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.

    OneDrive Get back Files onto Computer

    I previously answered your question on that citing the illustrated tutorials. OOPS Clicked OneDrive Backup and Don't Want it. I am very sorry those are unsuitable for you. As Idgat says you need to tread carefully. Remember that even when you have finally uninstalled Onedrive- that's the last step of several- you will still have access to files in your online Onedrive account (access via your browser). I suggest the following: a. disable synching. Check data b. disable Onedrive integration. Check data c. When sure, completely uninstall Onedrive Check data There are, as you know, tutorials for each of those. You don't want to read those. I will assume either that you know how to do each of those steps, or that you can find out in a manner that suits you. Could I suggest you ask a friend who is more familiar with technical matters to help you?

    I suggest you shouldn't expect people to repeat the instructions in the tutorials for you in detail. They are there so they are accurate and people don't have to spend time doing that. Good luck!

    Automatically backup OneDrive Files?

    Hi,

    I would suggest you to use EaseUS Todo Backup.

    After downloading this Kindly follow follow below mentioned steps, i am hopeful that your issue will be resolves by doing this.

    *Launch EaseUS's free backup software and choose "File Backup" option to back up files from your computer or other devices to OneDrive.

    *Select the files or folders you want to back up. Then click "Destination" to select the Cloud Storage > Add Cloud storage service so that you can save your files to OneDrive.

    *Click "Schedule" option to open the Backup Scheme window, here you can create a scheduled backup plan to back up files daily, weekly, monthly or upon an event. For example, you can set at 5 pm, then it will automatically back up these files every day at 5
    pm.

    *Click "Proceed" to automatically back up files to OneDrive.

    You are Done

    Please let me know, if that helps.
