I'm trying to stop using OneDrive on my Windows 11 PC and would like to disable it completely. I don't use cloud storage and prefer to keep all my files stored locally on the computer.
Even after closing OneDrive, it seems to start again after a reboot, and I still see OneDrive folders in File Explorer. I'm also concerned that some of my Desktop, Documents, and Pictures folders may still be syncing automatically.
What is the best way to completely disable OneDrive in Windows 11? Is it enough to unlink the PC and disable startup, or should I uninstall it as well? Any advice would be appreciated.
