    OneDrive Documents and Pictures not removed after removal of Windows User account on...


    I have removed my MS/OneDrive account from a 4 year old Dell laptop, and am using a Local Administrator Account to access the computer. However, in File Explorer I still can see my OneDrive Documents and Pictures. I thought removing a MS account also removes all associated OneDrive files? I want to give this laptop to someone, but don't want them to see my OneDrive files. What needs to be done to remove these files, without totally deleting my OneDrive account? Thanks!

    :)

    Remove User Account Picture

    Hi Shawn, thanks for all the great tutorials, I use them often myself or make reference to them.

    Do the listed steps actually work on vers 1903? As I mentioned in my preceding post, Ten Forward and I both replaced User.png instead of User-192.png in order to have success with vers 1809.

    I suggest you backup your personalized files first before removing the account.
    To delete an account, follow these steps:
    1. Press WIN + X keys and click Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
    2. Type the following command and press Enter. Replace test with the name of your sister's account. Code:
