Add or Remove OneDrive from Navigation Pane in Windows 10  

Hello Dimitri @ddelo,

Normally, that would be applied for 64-bit Windows if OneDrive hasn't been fully removed in all dialogs.

So far, I haven't seen anything it wasn't removed from as is, but I will add it now just to be thorough though. Thank you.

You're most welcome Shawn!

I have disabled One Drive through GPO and of course One Drive is not shown in Explorer, but I did find this WOW6432Node remnant...and thought that for consistency reasons, it should also be changed.

Cheers mate!

Hey mate,

I added a warning for this in the tutorial below.

But the OneDrive Folders (7) are still there!
If I accidentally put something in them, I am not actually putting them in my documents, etc.
Or, if I click on one of them, wanting to see my documents... its empty! because it is taking me to OneDrive documents....

Is there a way to remove those OneDrive Folders, or re-direct them to my true documents, pictures, music, etc?

Hello pcrody, and welcome to Ten Forums.

Please go ahead and post a screenshot showing the folders you are referring to just to verify if they are the same ones.

Just to note, if you open the OneDrive app, it will restore the OneDrive folder in the navigation pane.

I just did a search for OneDrive files and it returned 72 files, what happens if I delete the - some are in WinSxS folder?

I wouldn't recommend to delete them without knowing exactly what they are for to prevent breaking something. Especially when they are in the WinSxS folder or any system folder.
