Windows 10: Need to rmove all versions of OneDrive.exe

We're failing a software audit due to all of the old versions of One Drive installed in Windows 10. OneDrive.exe is located in the user profile, and if a user no longer has the PC and someone else is using it, the onedrive.exe file left under the old user profile doesn't ever update.


We have around 300 PCs, but the audit is reporting over 2,000 instances of an older version of One Drive on the PC. We also have people who "float", going from PC to PC.


We need a way to remove the older versions of One Drive that doesn't involve logging into 300 PCs to delete old user profiles.


Thanks


Steve

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.

 

No onedrive

Hello Francis,

Doing the steps below to install the latest version of OneDrive may be able to help.

1. Download and install the latest version of OneDrive that's rolling out with the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update.
2. Restart your computer.
3. After your computer restarts, select the Start button, search for “OneDrive”, and then select the OneDrive desktop app.
4. When OneDrive Setup starts, enter your personal account, or your work or school account, and then select Sign in.

[/quote] Click to expand... Sorry, but I think you're confused and keep referring to Onedrive. There is a big difference between the consumer version of Onedrive business O365 version. I do not have the consumer version of Onedrive installed... it is Onedrive for Business. Also, this script is for "Onedrive" .... not Onedrive for Business. Thanks anyway.

OneDrive (for Business) built-in Windows 10 differences?

No thanks for providing a non-rant version. I ought to recruit about 20 million people and walk down to Microsoft headquarters and do them in. Tired of Microsoft forcing their childish development skills on the masses.
