    Restore files from OneDrive back to PC and deactivate OneDrive


    Just upgraded to Windows 11 and accidentally activated OneDrive. It is still trying to sync the files - over 24 hours. I would like to have all folders restored to my pc and deactivate OneDrive. How do I get this done?

    :)

    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.

    [/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 - Bait and switch (but to what?)

    Yeah it's amazing how many people put their shit on places like Onedrive and such and all so concerned about privacy.
