"OneDrive isn't signed in" Pop Up Every Time I boot Windows 10
My search already found the "OneDrive.exe /reset" solution for this problem a couple of days ago. I tried it, but had to wait a couple of days to make sure the fix was indeed a fix. It has now been two days, with multiple reboots of the affected desktop computer and OneDrive now signs in automatically, as it should. The first reboot required me to open my Personal Vault so it could sync it properly, but after that, everything has been fixed.
Steps to Disable OneDrive from Starting Automatically Using Task Manager
- Open Task Manager:
- Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager directly, or right-click on the taskbar and select Task Manager.
- Go to the Startup Tab:
- Click on the Startup tab. This tab shows a list of applications that are set to start when Windows boots.
- Locate OneDrive:
- Scroll through the list to find Microsoft OneDrive.
- Disable OneDrive:
- Click on Microsoft OneDrive to select it.
- Click the Disable button at the bottom-right of the Task Manager window.
After Disabling OneDrive in Task Manager
- Manual Start: After disabling OneDrive from startup, you can manually start it whenever needed by searching for "OneDrive" in the Start menu or typing OneDrive in the search bar and launching the application.
Important Considerations
- Disabling Auto-Start: Disabling OneDrive from starting automatically means you will have to start it manually each time you need it, which might not be ideal if you rely on OneDrive for continuous syncing and file access.
- Syncing Issues: If you have syncing issues or need to ensure OneDrive functions correctly, you might need to address any underlying problems or configuration issues. Task Manager alone may not resolve these. The text and steps were edited with the help of AI.
