    onedrive. don't want it but i want my desktop back...


    Got a new pc and one drive immediately started throwing my files there and filled itself up and started asking me if I wanted to buy more. NO! Thought I stopped this thing from syncing and deleted the app. By my digital audio workstation seems to have defaulted to storing stuff there and somehow it has shown back up in explorer and can only be deleted if I want to lose everything on my deskop and in my documents.


    I bought a PC and have built my own storage regimen because I want to have control of my data. Why is this thing trying bilk me and how can I stop it?

    :)

    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.
