Situatie
If you are using Windows 11, you must have often come across the annoying Onedrive sync message that pops out of nowhere. Fortunately, Microsoft allows you to disable or remove it from the operating system.
Solutie
- Open the Run window by simultaneously pressing Windows + R key combination.
- Type ‘regedit‘ and press enter key.
- Click on yes when prompted to provide administrative access privileges.
- Navigate to the following path:
Computer>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>SOFTWARE>Policies>Microsoft>Windows>OneDrive
- If you can’t find the OneDrive folder here, then you need to create one in the Windows directory.
- Right-click on the Windows folder and click on New and then select Key.
- Name the Key to OneDrive.
- Right-click on this newly created key and click on New and then select DWORD (32-bit value).
- Rename this DWORD value to DisableFileSyncNGSC and then double click on it to set its value.
- Enter the value to 1 and save changes.
- That’s it. You’ve successfully disabled OneDrive file sync in Windows 11.
