Don't Miss: But if you're not a fan of OneDrive and its offerings, then OneDrive can quickly become a nuisance. To make matters worse, Microsoft claims there is no way to disable OneDrive. But just because Microsoft says it isn't possible doesn't mean it is; there's definitely a way to turn it off for your Windows 10 machine and remove it from the File Explorer as well. If You're on Windows 10 Home.
If you are running Windows 10 Home Edition, then this is the ideal method for you. The steps are completely reversible, so if you change your mind down the road, you can easily go back.

If you're not sure about your Windows architecture, just type in version in the Start menu and open up the corresponding section of the Settings app. Under System type, you'll see whether you're running a 32- or 64-bit system. Lastly, if you've used OneDrive in the past, then head over to your and remove the files that are present inside the OneDrive folder.

Pro, Enterprise, and Education editions have access to the Group Policy Editor which will act as our magical wands to banish OneDrive.

Any chance you could freshen up that link OR maybe just provide us with the text to put into a text pad editor to then save as a.REG file. That might be the better option, since the text never gets moldy.
