How To Disable OneDrive Sync In A Windows 10

[@ciffify]

OneDrive was criminal, just kept deleting files for no reason/changing documents for no reason. Thank you so much!

[@endripajaziti9690]

Dude thank you so much. I almost had a heart attack when I couldn't open those files with the X logo on them. To be honest I think microsoft needs to do a better job at OneDrive or at least make it more personizable for the user

[@aaa7189]

Thank You !!!! It was like One Drive was taking over my computer

[@ary5290]

I swear to god xD

[@Izumi-zm5dy]

true...

[@vigaming3680]

Same experience bro

[@truckeduptruckers]

Onedrive needs their ass whipped pulling this shit!

[@suzannedeb181]

...haist!..i am writing my thesis and everytime i save my work as pdf it goes to onedrive...darn darn darn...i fear that i might loose my files...

[@YuginamiVT]

Onedrive was honestly so inconvenient. First they gave me trouble with playing my videos and then they told me i need to pay them a monthly subscription for more storage space. At that point, i decided to unlink.

[@soul_invictus5087]

thank you, one drive kept adding files from my old computer onto my new one that I didn't want to be there and whenever I removed them they would get removed from my old one as well, which is where I wanted to keep them. This helps a ton.

[@graced1338]

Thank you so much for making it so easy. Something Microsoft didn't feel like doing.

[@edco2012]

THANK YOU. OneDrive felt like a tumor in my computer that wouldn't go away

[@mattbarr510]

Thanks mate, that onedrive was taking all my storage in my outlook email due to sync everything and cudnt find how to stop it, untill I watched this, so thanks mate 👍

[@michaelbrame4933]

THANKS!!! Don’t want BIG BROTHER having my personal files…the MATRIX in full effect

[@AnsarsLove]

Thanks so much! OneDrive was driving me crazy!

[@pridey2372]

Thank you soo much. One drive kept syncing tens of files from my games that were just numbers and now it’s all stopped

[@macqgaming]

Thanks brother my potato laptop was struggling for over 2 months

[@Brian-bw5hj]

Thanks this has been driving me nuts for weeks

[@Oliverlopo]

Bro you're the best onedrive was killing me literally

[@gooseisacat]

Thank you, that's exactly what I needed to find out!!

[@robdrury3359]

great tutorial it worked well I couldn't figure it out myself thank you for taking the time to make it

[@AngieWy]

Me too with the red x. After a week of trying fixes that don't work. I'm just paying them the stupid $1.99 for 100gb or. I feel like I am being held hostage. You have to delete Onedrive when the computer is brand new or risk losing files. Or perhaps save them to a flashdrive first and then delete Onedrive. MS ought to be ashamed.

[@AnalyticThings]

Thanks a much!!! I was facing more problem with one drive finally your video help me

[@FrancineAbigail09]

how do you unlink onedrive without losing your files?

[@MixSonaProductions]

This....

[@SpellFire]

Thank you. Jesus, one drive is so annoying. It was constantly spamming me with notifications about how my drive was full and telling me to pay more to upgrade storage when i didn't even want it on my new laptop.

[@jerrychaps8371]

OneDrive was a nightmare thank you

[@blessthebirds9344]

This is a WARNING, be careful people. I'm really, really not happy; I'll just say that. Deleting my photos from One Drive ALSO DELETED THEM FROM MY PC!! I only wanted to keep them for myself, not have them out in the wild on another server I have no control over. As I was about to copy my photo albums to an external hard drive, I thought to remove them from One Drive first; I wonder if they would have been deleted on an external hard drive too. Photos I will never, never get back, and no one else in my fam has them. I checked my desktop media folder before deleting files from One Drive --and it was totally empty, so thankfully I realised what was happening and was able to keep my docs on my PC. This is a Google problem, but also an impingement on my privacy and ownership of data, which Google really has no right to be messing with.

[@catpsyche]

When you have your PC Synced you have mirror image of both OneDrive and your Desktop/ PC. What should have been done in - the case above - BEFORE DELETING is manually go in and COPY all photos, vids, and whatever to another file location on PC (like My Photos, or create a brand new folder location) then PASTE them there. Then go and delete files. You need to have backups of the backups on OneDrive... Microsoft OneDrive are corrupt money grabbing thieves and it is no accident that these mistakes are made!!! In the new age were every corporation has an App that they want you to pay Monthly for!!!

[@felionrobinson698]

Thank you so much I tired of the red x marks and them asking me to upgrade and pay money

[@tinamariewatkins8394]

Onedrive does not appear in apps or on file manager but is up and running. While in Onedrive the settings options are only: Options, Upgrade and English. Basically, my computer gives me no option of opting out of it saving docs to the onedrive. Any other suggestions?

[@SanyaTiger]

Great Fix to Disable One Drive! A+++!

[@SimpleWorld08]

THANK YOU! Saved this to my favs incase I'd like to reinstall onedrive.

[@crumblingsanity6455]

For some reason, when I right-click onedrive it doesn't give me the settings option anywhere.

[@Baking_Baker]

Why am I the only person that does not see “Settings” when I right click on OneDrive? Also when I manually open OneDrive I don't see the "Account" tab either?

[@biggesthaterontheinternet]

THANK YOU onedrive was killing my computer 😭

[@450.mikey.2]

I will recommend y’all use this video

[@Dracufae]

Thank you. I was making videos and i use onedrive in schools my videos really crowded the one drive

[@TotalTech2.]

Thank you for this video. I can't stand onedrive and it syncs by default on my pc

[@timelessrecords2363]

Thanks one drive is bs. It was showing red Xs cause I have so many files it wasn't allowing me to use them when I need constant access to my files. So stressful

[@MixSonaProductions]

We can all agree that windows 10 and one drive are dumb We never give permissions to onedrive to auto backup our files. Why would they even back up everything in the desktop.

[@omomachhakchhuak8958]

i dont find settings option on my pc

[@manavamity]

Thank you for this, those X icons on my files were giving me OCD

[@uditisinha305]

same xD

[@ajcyrilldy]

I had to deal with those X's for 4 years

[@d-garmy2771]

Thnk u so much This video saved my internet😅

[@meritosagie4394]

Thank you for not wasting my time

[@heidi-annfoster4380]

When I right-clicked it did not show me "Settings". I had to click on the OneDrive icon in Explorer and then right click within it's folder.

[@radioprobably]

Thanks man I was looking for tha

[@silentnight2671]

Windows 10 is your worst ever PC nightmare! ThanQ, but I don't even wish to know how to re-link OneDrive.

[@tusharduhan9304]

After right clicking on one drive I can not see settings option there what to do

[@Farigeri]

Same

[@shooteberyone]

Thanks

[@haystack17]

everyone should send this letter..... Dear Windows, if you're going to try so hard to be like a MAC we'll just all switch to MAC.

[@shoyab11]

Thank-you so much sir finally i feel good after unlink Thank-you so much

[@backupforthevideos3861]

I hate OneDrive, with passion, thanks mate

[@toakes1963]

[@plushieteddyhunny]

Thank you very much i just lost my patience dealing with windows system

[@FortnitProKid]

Thank you

[@AbelieverofourLord]

Don't know if this helps everyone, but you can set Onedrive to NOT upload or sync when on a metered connection - then go into wifi settings and click this internet is metered... It doesn't seem to interfere with internet use, but it has paused/stopped Onedrive. ... And yes, if you disable or delete or remove Onedrive it will also delete all the files saved on your computer too, I know it happened to me and I had to login to my Onedrive account to recover them - it took all day and used up tons of data $

[@Heroheralal0001]

Thanks for your help, it’s very informative and it’s helpful

[@kamilp5618]

Thank you very much!!

[@MrEddieWoods]

[@bananawithanaxe8401]

everytime i unlink my onedrive it relinks next time i sign onto the computer

[@mikecat3499]

Thank you, it worked.

[@koladiefika1578]

Thank you for this. But as soon as you reconfigure One Drive, it takes over the Desktop, My Documents etc. Folders again. And if you delete the files from One Drive they are also deleted from the PC. I've tried resetting it but no luck. Do you have another solution, please?

[@pierrev5619]

I have exactly the same problem. I don't know what to do.

[@TakenCypress369]

same problem couldnt stop syncing so deleted files off one drive an unlinked account an it deleted everything from my computer i never wants files backed up to begin with an it was syncing 3 gb of files slowing everything down so got rid of it an ended up losing everything that was on desktop documents an pictures as well so had to re link it again an set it back up an now its syncing files again but taking forever if i try an stop it it deletes files again and if its unlinked computer says action needed for security firewall settings or something tells me set it back up hate one drive so much rather not back anything up an take risk of losing then be forced to back an have files deleted from computer by onedrive cause i deleted them online on onedrive didnt expect everything on my laptop to get wiped to

[@MixSonaProductions]

I think we can just use onedrive on browser. Thats it

[@mrdrigeryt1235]

[@trinasams3691]

OneDrive is not listed on the list of apps in order for me to disable it. In addition, it is not on my taskbar, however it does come up every time I want to save a document or picture. I do not want this. When I check for its location on the C drive it's in C: Users/(my name/AppData/Local. How to I uninstall this please? Thank you!

[@Manatti06]

It still tries to "Auto Save"

[@chrisp187]

OneDrive is being forced onto Surface Users. I use mine for art. I don't want my shit on OneDrive. I keep telling the computer not to save on OneDrive. Yet my art keeps showing up on one drive or being completely erased even if I hit the save button over and over.

[@afraantonio3739]

Thank you. Helpful.

[@OneCupOfCoffee204]

Dude, mine does not have a settings choice! What now?

[@youngblood6279]

how to stop permanently becoz it keep syncing

[@amjan8803]

Uninstalled OneDrive and even the logo vanished but after an auto Windows update after a period of time, the OneDrive logo reappeared on my 'Account' window in 'Settings.' How? Why? And how do I remove it? I don't even have OneDrive showing as an app or program on my comp'. Thanks in advance!!!🙏

[@A.R.Rashed143]

[@marjoryrosales2567]

Thank you super big help po Akala ko sira na Ang Microsoft ko Yun pala ayy nag sy-synchronize kaya ayaw ma open

[@unturned55]

Thank you.

[@Sbmbrk]

thanks bro. working perfectly.

[@the_thornhill]

so... it suspended me from the app, because I had gone over my 5gb limit. What's frustrating is that it basically is ransomeware at this point. Onedrive threatened to delete my files if I didn't pay for a subscription, it syncs from documents and pictures automatically, so it was gonna delete some pretty important stuff. Your tutorial really helped though! Saved me from a big ol mess. and to Microsoft; professionally, go to hell

[@Clayton2001]

I have now disconnected my one drive. Does that mean that if I delete documents from my onedrive, it will not remove it from my pc?

[@Alexmsi4070]

Thank you very easy!

[@user-ks1yd8eg2x]

thanks so much!
