Windows 10: I want onedrive out of my life

Whenever I log into my PC windows 10, onedrive appears on my desktop. If I update a program, download something it goes into the onedrive folder on the desktop. I delete the onedrive folder but the next time I log in it reappears. MS has a page on how to unlink but nothing works because none of the "things" MS support tells me to click on exist. There is no onedrive on the taskbar, there is no onedrive on the C:\users\username folder. It does not exit anywhere I can find on my computer yet windows continues to put it on the desktop upon login. How do I get this thing to go away.

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.
