Disable Onedrive
I have MS365 free 5GB but I cancelled MS 365. Still have onedrive that is downloading my pics, file and videos from my computer to Onedrive. How can I disable,stop downloading, completely get rid of onedrive without losing my pics,files, videos.
I do not have a cloud icon on my notification taskbar
Once I sign in to onedrive I do not have settings to unsync
At this point I want to disasociate

You won't lose files or data by uninstalling OneDrive from your computer. You can always access your files by signing in to OneDrive.com.
I want to get rid of OneDrive, cancel it completely no more signing in no more OneDrive holding my files, pics, videos.Is there a way to do this? Or I can delete everything on OneDrive.I have Win 10 on my PC. I have no subscription, the plan is free 5 GB. Need to get rid of free plan.

- Mike WilliamsSteel ContributorObviously we can't look over your shoulder or mind read. We don't even know what platform you're using.
If OneDrive is not running then it is not "downloading my pics, file and videos from my computer to Onedrive"
