)neDrive-Personal in Taskbar

A rectangle with an icon and label OneDrive-Personal has just appeared toward the right side my taskbar.

 

Can't find anything about it in TaskBar Settings or with Google Search.

 

Anybody know how to get rid of it?

    If you're signed in with a Microsoft account (e.g., Outlook, Hotmail, or Live), OneDrive might be enabled by default.

    Right-click the OneDrive icon (cloud icon) in the taskbar notification area (system tray).
    Click on Close OneDrive or Exit from the context menu. This will stop OneDrive, and the icon should disappear from the taskbar.

    Right-click on the taskbar and select Taskbar settings. In the window that opens, scroll down to the Notification area and click on Select which icons appear on the taskbar. Find OneDrive and toggle it off.

    It would be helpful if you could take a screenshot and share it.
    If you see this icon in OneDrive, most likely you need to do something with your account and right click to find out more.
