    OneDrive Wrong Account


    Hello,I got a PC when I was young and my Dad signed his Microsoft + OneDrive account onto the PC without asking.I recently decided I wanted my OneDrive account working and for my PC information to be backed up into OneDrive, I started the process and logged onto MY account not this one, this one being my fathers and paid the £19.99 for more storage to backup everything. After the payment I realised my PC was signed to my Dads Microsoft/OneDrive and did not have this paid upgrade in storage and benefits.Am I able to switch my PC to my Microsoft/OneDrive without any complications? -me loosing

  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.

    1. Press WIN + X keys and click Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
    2. Type the following command and press Enter. Replace test with the name of your sister's account. Code:

    Hello Francis, OneDrive Wrong Account :)

    Doing the steps below to install the latest version of OneDrive may be able to help.

    1. Download and install the latest version of OneDrive that's rolling out with the Windows 10 Fall Creators Update.
    2. Restart your computer.
    3. After your computer restarts, select the Start button, search for “OneDrive”, and then select the OneDrive desktop app.
    4. When OneDrive Setup starts, enter your personal account, or your work or school account, and then select Sign in.
