Windows 10: OneDrive seven times (twice)

I've never been fond of OneDrive and always disabled/uninstalled it the best I could before (never a simple task, you know).

After a lot of problems, a few months ago I reinstalled Windows 10 and decided to keep OneDrive untouched, except for some of its basic settings.

But seeking information on recent issues, I ran Autoruns and found that OneDrive appears seven times (twice) on the Everything list.

Why is that so? Is it any sort of problem? What should I do about it? TIA.

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 - Login twice every time

Hello,

User profile corruption is one of the possible reasons why you are being asked to sign in twice on your computer. To troubleshoot the issue, we suggest creating a new user account and see if the same issue will occur on a different user profile. To do this,
simply follow the steps below:

• 
  Select the Start button, then select Settings
  > Accounts > Family & other people > Add someone else to this PC.
  
• 
  Type a user name, password, password hint, and then select Next.
  

Should you have further questions, please let us know.
