Windows 10: Onedrive

Hello community,

I use Onedrive to back up and store all my photographs and documents both from my laptops and my phone. I know that Onedrive has a Photo folder, which is where my Iphone pics go, but from my laptop all the transferred images go to my Pictures folder.


My question is:

Is there a way for the pictures folder to link to the Photos Section of onedrive. I seem to have pictures in both areas. How do I organise this better so that they show up in the Photos folder that is preset by onedrive when they are imported via the Pictures folder.


Hope this question makes sense. My files seem rather messy at the moment and we have 30 plus years of family photos on there.


Regards

Jodie

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.

• 
  Right-click the white OneDrive cloud icon in the notification area, at the far right of the taskbar.
  
  
  
  (You might need to click the Show hidden icons arrow next to the notification area to see the
  OneDrive icon.)
  
• 
  Click Settings, and then click Unlink.
  
• 
  Follow the steps in the Welcome to OneDrive wizard to set up OneDrive.
