    Onedrive creates multiple files


    Hello,


    Onedrive is creating multiple files, e.g. if file is salesdata it will create salesdata 1, salesdata 2 etc.



    I tried the following but did not fix it:


    Try to reset your Onedrive (Please note that no data will be lost because of below step)

    Windows Key+R > Copy the below and paste and Enter
    %localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\onedrive.exe /reset

    After few minutes start Onedrive again. if this doesn't appear, copy the below and paste into Run and Enter
    %localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\onedrive.exe

    :)

    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.
