    Win 10 x64 Home PC cant reinstall or access OneDrive


    Home PC only I am only Admin. About a yr ago I some how deleted parts of onedrive, would not stop syncing and made me . I do not remember what I did. Though I did a good job. It really does not seem to be there or active. And I do not know how to get in to repair it.

    It is not showing up in my remove/uninstall/add or my task bar. I can not find it with a win 10 search.

    Want to use it again. I forget the name but it is saved in my windows>winsys directory. "One Drive Setup". When I try to run that it tells me I have a newer version installed and "Stops" me there. When I try to run the copy I downloaded from windows. It tells me I have to uninstall whatever is on my computer already. I just can not access it. I have been logging in directly to the website to use it.

    How can I uninstall the old stuff and start from scratch? I just paid the $6.99 monthly fee and want to use it again.

    THANKS!

    In the run dialog type or copy and paste %systemroot%\SysWOW64\OneDriveSetup.exe /uninstall. Then reboot. Reinstall from https://onedrive.live.com/about/en-GB/download/ .

    No referrals needed, thanks anyway, as I'll never want or need these 'Badges' here.

    All I ask is a reply if it worked or not.
