Windows 10: OneDrive keeps asking me to set up after unlinking my PC

Hello,


I recently unlinked my PC from OneDrive because I wasn't using it, following Microsoft assistance instructions. However, immediately after that, a window popped up asking me to set up OneDrive. I refuse to do so, since that would completely defy the point of unlinking in the first place; however, every time I close it, the window pops back up again instantly. Naturally, there is no option to simply decline. How do I make this stop? If I don't receive an answer quite quickly, I'm going to just uninstall the blasted thing before this harassment drives me completely bonkers.


Thank you in advance.

:)

 

OneDrive folder icon changed to plain

Hi,

Thank you for replying.

I understand your concern and suggest you to Unlink OneDrive and run OneDrive setup
again and check. Here is the steps:

• 
  Right-click the white OneDrive cloud icon in the notification area, at the far right of the taskbar.
  
  
  
  (You might need to click the Show hidden icons arrow next to the notification area to see the
  OneDrive icon.)
  
• 
  Click Settings, and then click Unlink.
  
• 
  Follow the steps in the Welcome to OneDrive wizard to set up OneDrive.
  

Do notify us if the issue still persists and we'll be glad to help.
