Windows 10 - OneDrive

Anyone know how to remove "OneDrive - For Business" from the Explorer navigation panel? I've tried just about every registry modification, and windows policy for "Onedrive" but they only seem to work for the consumer product, not for onedrive for business.

The onedrive product alone is so damn annoying and continues to load itself upon startup, even when it's explicitly remove from startup. It continues to automatically load and unload itself from within the startup folder... while I'm actively watching it load itself into the startup folder.

 

OneDrive & Old MS Account

Emily,

1. OneDrive prompting for an old organization email - this can me that it is somewhere in the registry. But I would suggest that you check the following first:

• I checked the Windows Credential Manager and did not find any reference to the old organization account.
  
• I checked the Registry Editor and did not find any reference to the email for the old org account.
  

2. Two personal OneDrive folder in File Explorer - have you ever set up OneDrive under two different Microsoft account (personal ones)? No

Or have you ever set up OneDrive to two different locations under the same Microsoft account? Not sure. I set up OneDrive 1st on the desktop with a location on that computer and then I setup OneDrive on the laptop and used the location suggested by OneDrive. Maybe that is the problem with parallel structure because I am not sure how to access OneDrive on the laptop or do I have to access those files/folders online from the laptop and not set up OneDrive on the laptop?

I still do not know why everything is under Desktop.

I am interested in knowing the following:

Right click on each OneDrive folder in File explorer, choose "copy as path", then paste the path in a reply to me. Do that for both folders. Thanks!

• They are both the same - "C:\Users\Myname\OneDrive"
  

Thank you.

 

Windows 10 - OneDrive

This is Windows 10 Pro... Enterprise is an entirely different deal and I'm sure I won't have problems that route, but I'm not forking over more $ to dipshit developers. The only thing I can think of is un-linking my Office 365 accounts within Office, but that defeats the purpose of accessing the files ONLINE and managing them from there. I have two alumni accounts, not a single problem in Windows 7/8 until M$shit devs decided to integrate Onedrive. I've deleted, renamed, set read-only to "msosync.exe," ... but windows continues to add it again and again, and NOW I just noticed it's now linking to groove.exe, instead of onedrive. Sooo fn annoying!



Onedrive on Windows 10 is not an 'app' it is integrated. Plus I don't fool around with the Windows Store thoughtless developer child bullshit. Windows Store ought to be completely removed from the Windows platform all together. Also I do not intend to completely remove Onedrive, it defeats the purpose... the purpose is to REMOVE it from Windows Explorer navigation and startup.
