You won't lose files or data by uninstalling OneDrive from your computer. You can always access your files by signing in to https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/p/?LinkID=251869.
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 WilliamsJun 27, 2023Steel 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"
