Windows 10: onedrive messed up my email

don't remember how onedrive was installed on pc, didn't need it anyways, then the hotmail linked with microsoft became full storage and can't send or receive messages.unshared and unlinked onedrive, it says all cloud files will be deleted this way, but on email page it still says storage full, and when I follow the link to free up space on onedrive, it says my account is currently unavailable, sent the email to customer support, the link they sent back didn't work.so now I cannot use the hotmail because of onedrive, something I didn't ask for, don't have the use for, and won't be paying for.

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.

 

Remove work email from onedrive messed up work email

I created a personal Onedrive account and used my work email address years ago. I had it synced to onedrive on my work laptop. As our work computers are going to be locked down , I changed the onedrive account email address to a personal gmail address. I no longer wish or need to sync the onedrive with my work pc, as it will no longer be possible in the near future due to corporate security

On my work pc I use Outlook . In Windows 10 Mail on my work pc, I noticed my personal gmail was listed as an email account. I removed it. Now my work email will not work because the data file is gone.

So even though I changed onedrive email , it made matters worse because now it seems like my personal gmail and my work email are somehow tied together

 

Unable to login to OneDrive using new email address

Hi Chris,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that you are unable to sign in to OneDrive using your new email address.



Please let us know:

• When you say, “I have updated to a new email address and updated Microsoft details” where exactly have you updated the details?
  
• Are you try to sign in to the OneDrive website or OneDrive Desktop app?
  

I would suggest you to refer the steps mentioned in the article
OneDrive shows "You're syncing a different account" error and see if that helps.



However, let me help to point you in the right direction for support related to OneDrive issues. We do have dedicated support team for OneDrive and you can get in touch with them for further assistance. Follow the below steps to contact the OneDrive
