Can't get Onedrive to stop running on my computers
I don't want OneDrive on my computer. I have no need for it. I am currently switching from my desktop computer to my new laptop. I have gone to the Onedrive cloud icon on my taskbar on my new lap...

OneDrive is not on your computer. It's on the server. If you made a local copy on your computer then just right click the root folder and select free up space. Maybe i'm missing something.
Note, i have a 32 terabyte hard drive but i still rely on onedrive. I never thought of it is a backup tool until they recently started promoting it as one. As far as i'm concerned it's just a sharing tool, as the name implies.
