Windows 10: OneDrive problem

I have used a pc (not the same one) with Windows, now V10, for about 15 years and I know little more than I need to know. I recently bought my first smartphone - iPhone 11 - and have found it easy to download photos from it to Pictures in Documents on my pc. To my surprise I also get dozens of old photos, scans and screenshots of mine, the same ones each time, going back years, a few in the 17th century, which is even more of a surprise. They are in 'Photos' (not Pictures). A bar at the top of the screen says 'One Drive', which I think I have heard of. Perhaps it is an advantage to have these files safe in case of disaster so I will leave them where they are as a back-up to my monthly back-ups. I find it impossible to make sense of the One Drive prog, so please can anyone tell me how to transfer selected photos etc to Documents on my pc for easy viewing? I tried following advice on the internet without success. For one thing, it said to change from thumbnails to list view, but how? Thanks in hope.

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.

Windows 10 1709 System Restore problems...

That seems to be an attempt at Option 2 in the tutorial, which requires you to
a. Boot to a command prompt (Did you?)
b. You then seem to be mixing steps 3,4 and 5, thus your command is incorrect.

I suggest Option 1 is easier.

If you still have problems, please repost listing each specific step and saying which option from the tutorial you are using. Thanks.
