Please help, I've just run this on 2 Windows 10 machines and now when I try to start explorer either from shortcut or Win+E I get the following error - Windows cannot find ". Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again.
I've run a system restore on machine to sort the problem, the other had system restore disabled
Any help greatly appreciated
Hello tjrayner, and welcome to Ten Forums. :)
It sounds like something interfered with the .bat file restarting explorer.
See if you are able to restart explorer using Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc) instead.

I've rebooted the PC, explorer itself runs as I have the desktop etc fine. If I type C:\ in the search bar it opens. It's just Win + E or opening File Explorer directly when I get the error
Thanks
The tutorial wouldn't cause that since it will only add or remove OneDrive.
See if running a SFC /SCANNOW command may help.

That is absolutely right tjrayner, the Tutorial and/or bat file, if done properly, will only deal with OneDrive and nothing else.
There has to be something else involved. It would be nice to see the actual contents of the exact .bat file 'You' actually ran, if that's what you did, just to see what you really have listed in there.
I hope you get her back up and running.
I always say even better than a restore point, better to use a program to create partition image backups, that way no matter what mistake you do or whatever thing happens within your OS, you can restore it back to the way it was before you started.
Good luck, and all the best to succeed
Just tried it on Win 10 1511 10586.3 - Worked like a charm! Thanks much!
