    OneDrive Personal has disappeared from File Explorer

    I have a OneDrive Personal Account. This used to be listed in the list of files and folders in File Explorer. It still is on my HP desktop running W11, but has disappeared from my W10 HP laptop. I've tried the 'Restore your OneDrive' instructions, but they don't seem to relate to my particular problem, i.e., they seem to be to restore deleted files, etc, not to make OneDrive appear in the folder list in FE.

    [I also have a Office 365 OneDrive from work. That is still listed ok.]

  3. 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.

    W11 File Explorer?

    I have a new PC with W11 Pro installed. I've loaded a few programs, but now I notice that if I click the file explorer icon on the bottom task bar after switch on, the screen blinks, the task bar disappears and reappears, but no file explorer window appears. The same thing happens if I try again. If I right click on the file explorer icon and select a folder from the list, the folder appears as normal. From then on a file explorer window will appear normally if I click the file explorer icon, without any screen blink. Any ideas?
