  1. How to transfer OneDrive desktop to new profile?


    I have been using a laptop for my work stuff but the profile created was under my personal account a @hotmail.com account.On that profile, the desktop was linked to my work onedrive account instead of the local desktopI just managed to create a separate work profile, which i intend to use for work. I would like the desktop on this new work profile to be linked with my work onedrive profile, while the laptop profile be linked to my personal onedrive desktop profile. Right now, the work profile is linked on a local desktop.How can I go about making this change?

    :)

  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 transfer OneDrive desktop to new profile?

    Question about transfering old user profile to new.

    Before I make a mess of things, I thought I had better ask. This all started because I like to use Internet Explorer. It simply would not load. I believe I tried every fix on the web. One of the suggestions was to create a new User Profile. I did that and now Internet Explorer is working. My question is about moving the AppData folder over. Apparently I will have to reinstall all of my apps and programs in this new profile. Is there anything I need to know before I transfer AppData over. I hope that after I transfer all these folders over I will still have Internet Explorer. I guess I will have to check on it as I move things over. Any suggestions will be much appreciated.
