  1. One Drive keeps coming back from the dead


    I absolutely loathe One Drive. I should not be forced to use a service because windows wants me to.Anyway, I've gone through all the steps. I've unlinked my account from one drive, I've deleted all the folders that I know of manually, and I've uninstalled the app from my computer.And yet, a new one drive folder and one drive pictures folder are added within 30 seconds every time I delete them. Nothing is connected to them or inside them, but they keep appearing after I've deleted everything.Does anyone know where I can go to stop these folders from coming back from the dead every time?

    :)
