  1. Rename "OneDrive - Personal" to "OneDrive"


    This is silly and not important, but in Windows 10 is there any way to rename "OneDrive - Personal" to just "OneDrive" without breaking anything?I don't use a business OneDrive, and the "- Personal" mildly offends my sense of aesthetics.

    :)

  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.

    Windows 10 - OneDrive

    [/quote] Click to expand... Sorry, but I think you're confused and keep referring to Onedrive. There is a big difference between the consumer version of Onedrive business O365 version. I do not have the consumer version of Onedrive installed... it is Onedrive for Business. Also, this script is for "Onedrive" .... not Onedrive for Business. Thanks anyway.

    OneDrive (for Business) built-in Windows 10 differences?

    No thanks for providing a non-rant version. I ought to recruit about 20 million people and walk down to Microsoft headquarters and do them in. Tired of Microsoft forcing their childish development skills on the masses.

    OneDrive Placeholder in Sidebar Renamed to OneDrive - Personal

    Windows version 10.0.19043. My OneDrive in the sidebar recently renamed itself from OneDrive to OneDrive - Personal. I don't have a work account attached to my PC. How do I change it back to just OneDrive?
