Remove OneDrive from Components

Hi,

how can I remove OneDrive from Components ? It's greyed out as you can see in the attached screenshot. Also in compatibility mode it's unavailable. Thank you.

Terminator90 or anyone with the latest , this screen no longer shows cloud API or one drive. I deleted the modified files cause ntlite was giving me errors. so i unmounted and deleted the iso in the cache folder.

I also want to take out Edge. Sorry I'm about to turn 67 and no longer a sharp tool , now just a dull one ;) . I have not had time to try and learn how those files on this web site that look like a batch file to modify the iso ?

Would it be a wise move to a local only account ? I don't care they know it's me, but seeing all those Edge services running when I never use Edge.

thank you all in advance for your time . I have a spare 1T 990 nvme and want to install it there.

Best regards
Roman Toledo
 
Some users prefer a Local User Account over to using a MS Account, because of Windows' default behavior.

When Windows sees you have a MS Account, it will default to moving your user folders to OneDrive (to allow user profile syncing across multiple PC's). Not everyone likes this. Another option is to create a Local User Account first, and afterwards link your MS Account to it for convenience. In this manner, your folders don't default to OneDrive but you still have the benefits of having a MS Account.

If you remove Edge browser, you should keep Edge (Legacy), which is the IE11 compatibility library that some 3rd-party apps expect to find. The other Edge components including EdgeUpdater, may be removed.
 
sounds like I should just leave it alone as I have one drive under control. I'm the guy the saying if it ain't broke was made for . with all that I have running I'm only using 18% of memory and 1% cpu typing right now with ntlite open and a ham radio app running

thank you

Если Вам понадобиться, вот скрипт который полностью автоматически удаляет OneDrive. Папку $OEM$, из архива положить в папку sources в образе Windows. Или можете использовать скрипт вручную после установки Windows.

If you need it, here is a script that completely automatically deletes OneDrive. Put the $OEM$ folder from the archive in the sources folder in the Windows image. Or you can use the script manually after installing Windows.

"%windir%\SysWOW64\OneDriveSetup.exe" /uninstall >Nul 2>&1
"C:\Windows\System32\OneDriveSetup.exe" /uninstall >Nul 2>&1
for /D %%I in ("%localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\*") do "%%~I\OneDriveSetup.exe" /uninstall >Nul 2>&1

>nul powershell -nop -c "Get-WmiObject -Query ' select * from Win32_Product where Name like \"%%OneDrive%%\" ' | ForEach-Object { ($_).Uninstall()}"
>nul powershell -noprofile -executionpolicy bypass -command "Get-AppxPackage -Name *OneDrive* -AllUsers | Foreach {Remove-AppxPackage $_.PackageFullName -AllUsers}"
>nul powershell -noprofile -executionpolicy bypass -command "Get-ProvisionedAppxPackage -Online | Where-Object { $_.PackageName -match 'OneDrive' } | ForEach-Object { Remove-ProvisionedAppxPackage -Online -AllUsers -PackageName $_.PackageName }"

Reg Delete "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run" /v "OneDriveSetup" /f >Nul 2>&1

Hi garlin, I'm about to built another W10 ioT LTSC21 ISO (as I inadvertently just wiped the SSD on my laptop) As a matter of course I remove anything called "Edge" but leave in IE11. Not because I use the geriatric browser but because I have a very old school email client that needs the IE rendering engine to display HTML mail. That's my only M$ browser requirement. So does your caution about Edge (Legacy) apply in my case too?
 
Depending on your legacy client, it may require:
- Internet Explorer, for the old-school IE7 rendering engine to display page formatting​
- Edge (Legacy), for the IE11 rendering engine or URL handing libraries​
 
Thanks, garlin

I'll take my chances with IE - (which I know works) This email client is so old it's user interface is made of birch bark!
 
In newer Windows ISO's OneDrive is at another location than
NLTmpMnt\Users\Default\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
