  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.

  3. Xbox and OneDrive won´t log in sometimes

    Thank you for the information!

    Let us try to sort out this issuewhy can't I log onto my onedrive on desktop :)

    I suggest you log in to the XBOX and OneDrive on the Web and then check the same error persists

    XBOX Web: https://xbox.com/en-us/live

    OneDrive Web: Sign in - Microsoft OneDrive

    why can't I log onto my onedrive on desktop

    OneDrive is subfolder of Desktop in the Registry.

    You don't specify the key you found that entry under, but I'm guessing it's:
    • HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
    Then you say:
    • " I have found the GUID of OneDrive is a different hex number."
    But you don't tell us how you "found" this or the value of the GUID, but I'm guessing it's:
    • {018D5C66-4533-4307-9B53-224DE2ED1FE6}
    Both are related to OneDrive. {A52BBA46-E9E1-435f-B3D9-28DAA648C0F6} is the KnownFolderID of the OneDrive folder. The ID/Path value is only found under HKCU\...\UserShellFolders if the file sytem location of the OneDrive folder has been changed from its default of %UserProfile%\OneDrive, which can only be done on setup or when re-linking your PC after un-linking. {018D5C66-4533-4307-9B53-224DE2ED1FE6} is the CLSID of the virtual folder that is inserted into the Virtual Desktop namespace via:
    • HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Desktop\NameSpace
    This is what allows OneDrive to appear in the Navigation Pane and on the Desktop. That is why it's the GUID you find most frequently in internet searches --- people frequently want to remove it from the Navigation Pane. Before I make any suggestions, would like more info:
    1. In the Explreor Address bar or a Run dialog, type shell:OneDriveEnter. Does a folder open, eror occur, or nothing happen?
    2. Does the folder D:\Desktop\OneDrvie exist? Amy content?
    3. Does the %UserProfile%\OneDrive folder still exist? Any content?
    4. If you access OneDrive online via your MS account, and it contains folders/files, can you locate the corresponding items anywhere on your PC?
    The one thing you might try is deleting the {A52BBA46-E9E1-435f-B3D9-28DAA648C0F6} value under HKCU\...\UserShellFolders, creating (if it doesn't exist) a folder named OneDrive in your user profile folder (the default location), restarting your PC, and then seeing if your can start OneDrive.
