Is possible run only OneDrive for Business or Onedrive personal?

Hello! Is possible run only OneDrive for Business or Onedrive personal, separately? I mean, if needed, run one of them but another is turned off. Thanks!

Sure, you can configure only the one you want to use. And if both are already configured, you can exit/quit the app instance corresponding to said account.

Thanks, Vasil Michev, for answer!

How i can run only one of them?
When i run, for example, Onedrive business, on my pc start also Family Onedrive.
Or, when i run Onedrive Family, starts also Onedrive for business.

How to right configure them?

Thanks!

Open the tray menu (lower right corner), locate the OneDrive icon, right-click on it, Help&Settings, Quit. It should stay closed now.

    I have the same problem: both OneDrive instances start with the system. I can quit one of them. Next time I start my machine, both OneDrive instances start again.
    
    I would like to have a permanent setting not to start my personal OneDrive automatically only (while keeping my business OneDrive to start with Windows start).

  Yes, i can quit one of them.
  If, in settings, i disable run on system start, turns off both of them.
