    Hi,I have just recently subscribed to Office 360. I am have a few issues, questions. I have voiced one already.This one is about the app throwing up about 10000 files for deletion? And the app doesn't give me a location so I can look at the files it is asking me if I want to delete them. Without seeing them where they are being stored I do not want to delete them. So, how do I find these files it keeps asking if I want deleted? I don't want to delete anything important. And I won't know if I can't see them in the proper context what folder they are in, etc..Plus, I would like to know so I ca

  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 Delete Confirmation Message

    Don't know if this will solve your problem, but suggest you uninstall OneDrive, then delete the OneDrive folder in C:\Users\User-name\AppData\Local\Microsoft, and then reinstall OneDrive.

    OneDrive "only" folders on Windows Phone 8 vs OneDrive online.

    Hi tribexx,

    Thanks for following up with detailed steps.

    After the "Saved pictures from SkyDrive" gets generated, you can find them from the OneDrive.

    • Launch OneDrive from app list
    • You will find the "Saved Pictures" from "files pivot" (root level) and/or under "Pictures" folder
    • Tap into "Saved Pictures" from OneDrive app, you can (multiple) delete files or perform other operations from there. For multiple delete
      • Tap on "select"
      • Multiple selection of files you want to delete
      • Tap on delete
      • And confirm

      You can also try to use the "search" from app bar (at the bottom of screen) to search "Saved pictures". If you still cannot find the "Saved pictures", please let us know.

      Thank you.
