    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.

    Repeatedly getting WIndows Defender notices about Backdoor PHP Small M in Onedrive temp file

    My onedrive has been stuck for days at 'processing' and I continually get a message from windows defender that says it has found BackdoorWhy I'm getting random files in my OneDrive? :pHP/Small.M in a onedrive temporary file. I continue to remove it and it just keeps coming back. The file is always
    the same - it is C:\

    OneDriveTemp\S-1 {and then about 50 random characters}.temp

    I have no idea how to fix this because I can't actually tell which file it is.

    Any suggestions????

    OneDrive not running - reset won't work - how to get latest version?

    Thanks for the suggestion.
    The reason why I wanted to do a reset or re-install is to indeed get OneDrive in that list. Currently it isn't.
