    OneDrive Uninstall


    I have tried to completely uninstall and remove OneDrive from my computer using Uninstall in Windows, Revo Uninstaller, Unlink in OneDrive account, edit Registry keys, and it appears that OneDrive is successfully removed.


    The one remaining issue is in my File Explorer with the Documents and the Pictures folder under "This PC." When I select either the Documents or Pictures folder I receive an Error message that "C:\Users\UserName\OneDrive\Documents or Pictures" is unavailable." I realize I am receiving this error message because the OneDrive folder no longer exists. How can I either delete this Documents or Pictures folder folder or change the path for these folders?


    Changing the Properties Location of this folder to "Default" also does not work as I receive another error message that "Can't move the folder because there is a folder in the same location that cannot be redirected. Access denied." This message occurs even though I have renamed the folders so there should not be the same folder name "Documents" and when it does try to redirect, a "OneDrive" folder is being established which I certainly don't want. At this point after two days working this issue, I am stumped.


    Please help! I have Windows 10 Home Version 2004 Build 19041.746.


    Thanks in advance.

    :)

  2. 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.

    Unable to uninstall Onedrive For Business

    OneDrive can be uninstalled from some versions of Windows 10:

    1. Select the Start button, type Programs in the search box, and then select Add or remove programs in the list of results.
    2. Under Apps & features, find and select Microsoft OneDrive, and then select Uninstall.

    As OneDrive is built in to some versions of Windows and can't be uninstalled. As a workaround, you can hide it. Reference “Turn off or uninstall OneDrive” for detail steps:

    How do you uninstall chipset drivers?

    I'm installing a new mobo so I need to uninstall the intel 865g drivers to make way for the P35 drivers.

    Can't find any uninstall options in add/remove programs and intel chipset inst listed in driver cleaner.

    Any suggestions? *Confused OneDrive Uninstall :confused:
