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 keeps crashing in Windows 10

Hi,

Quick update. This fixed it for me:

I suggest you to try resetting OneDrive and check if it helps you in resolving the issue. To do so refer the steps below:

Be aware that resetting OneDrive re-syncs all your OneDrive files, which could take some time depending on how many files you’re syncing.

• Press the Windows key + R to open the Run
  Window.
• In the Run Window enter the following:
  %localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\onedrive.exe /reset
• Click OK. The OneDrive system tray icon on the desktop should disappear and re-appear after a minute or two.
• If the OneDrive system tray icon does not re-appear after a few minutes, do the following. In the Run Window Enter: %localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\onedrive.exe

 

what is wrong with onedrive sync

Hello, CaptainCam.



Welcome to the Microsoft Community and I hope all is well.

Based on your description, I understand that you seem to be experiencing an issue where OneDrive is not syncing properly and keeps creating copies of files. We do understand how you feel when you encounter this issue.



In order to help you better, I would like to know more about it:

• May I ask if all the 4 OneDrive apps you mentioned are not syncing properly, are you on different computers with OneDrive?
  

• You mentioned that you get a security warning when opening Word, can you share a screenshot with us? I think this will help us better identify your issue.
  

• Does OneDrive on your Samsung mobile phone also duplicate file creation?
  

• Is your OneDrive icon currently changing?
  

We would first recommend that you try opening OneDrive on the web and checking for duplicate files: onedrive.live.com



In addition, we also suggest you try the following solutions:



1.Reset OneDrive, Resetting Microsoft OneDrive can sometimes resolve sync issues and reset all problematic OneDrive settings. After reset, OneDrive will perform full sync, reset OneDrive will not lose your data.
