How To Get Rid Of OneDrive Completely
Aug 17, 2015
I would like to get rid of One Drive completely.
By logging in locally and not with a Microsoft account, One Drive is not activated.
In previous Windows versions you could uninstall One Drive in Programs and Features, but it no longer appears?
One Drive is based in the USA and therefore not safe at all The NSA will have full access to anything and everything stored.

I was wanting to do the same (remove the very annoying OneDrive) and while searching around the net I came across this. Note the very first post with the Batch file to remove the OneDrive from your Windows 10 install. I do not take credit for it,

It's been a while since I've upgraded to Windows 10 but the problem still exists. To leave this short, when I'm doing something like watching a movie, installing files, browsing the web, playing a game, etc. My computer just becomes completely unresponsive. I can't move my mouse, I can't use ctrl+alt+delete to get to Task Manager, when I check to see if my keyboard is still working, I try to turn caps lock off and on and that doesn't work. So whatever this issue is, it's just completely crashing my computer. This freezing causes me to hard restart my computer every single time.
I don't want to get back to Windows 7 so I've been dealing with it by keeping my PC close to me that way I can restart it when needed, but it's annoying when you're trying to do something and all of a sudden your computer just freezes.

Laptop, Dell Studio 1555, Previously running Win7 Ultimate and had no issues regarding random shutdowns.
Upgraded to Win10 Pro, then wiped drive and clean installed Win10 Pro. No issues during installation. No issues with device drivers. No other software installed.
Windows 10 randomly shuts down completely. no BSOD. turned off automatic restart, still no BSOD. Random shutdowns always occurs whenever i click on something (does not matter what). Random shutdown does not occur when system is idle.
Event viewer shows only Unexpected Shutdown.

I've recently built my new pc and it's been running fine for a week. Although recently it's been running incredibly slow. After looking around for what it might be I realised my Memory usage is 96% with nothing open.
I've looked through all the processes, there's nothing unusual everything is working fine. It's a hidden process taking up my 7.6gbs of 8gbs of Ram. I've looked around for solutions and nothings worked. Ran a simple avg virus check. Nothing.

Bought an Asus X550Z-WB11 off of Amazon, started it up, immediately upgraded to Win 10, and I'm getting issues with my screen.
If I let it fall asleep for say, ten minutes, then wake it up, it boots up normally, I see the screen for a moment, and then the screen turns of again and no button pressing turns or waiting turns it back on.
Sometimes I can get it to turn back on after it putting it to sleep then waking it up a few times; when I get a success the back light turns on and blinks several times, and then the screen turns on and blinks a few times before stabilizing.
If I turn it off and on, the screen usually turns on with no problem.
The first time I restarted my laptop, it told me there was an error and it fixed it, but the screen still blinks and I haven't gotten that message again.
The way it blinks reminds me of having a faulty composite connection and having to wiggle it around into the right position, but no angling of the screen, tilting of the laptop, or light tap anywhere had any effect.
It's not that black screen issue that everyone else has, the screen is completely off.
The X550Z-WB11 has:
AMD A10 7400p
Readeon R6 7400p
8GB Ram
1TB HDD

Is there a way to completely remove Cortana? I disabled it, but it keeps running in the background.
I did find some suggestions to remove it, but it also removes the search and causes problems to other stuff.

I was recently browsing the internet (on windows 10) when suddenly it crashes then restarts. Instead of restarting fully it did a disk analysis. It restarted a few times when doing this scan but eventually it finished. When restarting it brought up a completely new desktop picture and had no password. This was completely different to mine. When going onto the desktop there was no taskbar, no recycling bin, but only 4 small white buttons in the bottom right corner. These buttons consist of language, wireless connection, ease of access? and power. None of these buttons seem to do much if nothing. In ease of accses there is a tab saying on screen keyboard and when clicked nothing happens. You cannot right click on the desktop either!

I installed a software two days ago. Now I wish to uninstall it completely and want my PC to be in the state as it was before installing it. A simple uninstall may leave some of the backdoor components installed by this software. Unfortunately, Windows 10 has System Restore off by default which I forgot, so can't use the System Restore.

Prior to installing my ZoneAlarm, I wanna completely turn off my windows 10 firewall, for some reason, and it must be done only via registry:
Control PanelSystem and SecurityWindows FirewallCustomize Settings
> Turn off Windows Firewall = For both Private and Public Networks!
How can I do it via registry? I found a snippet but didn't work for my Windows 10, am I somewhere wrong or it should have some changes to work?!
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMCurrentControlSetServicesSharedAccessParametersFirewallPolicyStandard Profile]
"DisableNotifications"=dword:00000001
"DoNotAllowExceptions"=dword:00000001
"EnableFirewall"=dword:00000000

It gets as far as the login screen, and after I enter my password the circle of little dots just spin, and spin and spin...
I bought this tablet a week ago, it is an Acer One 10 s1002-145A. Earlier today I checked for updates, and tried to download the update to the new build. It never got past 0% downloading.
There were a lot of other strange problems that just started happening today also, when I would try to access links from the Control Panel, the screen would just become inactive - I was unable to interact with or close that window. This happened when I attempted to System Restore also. Attempting to open a CMD prompt as an Administrator would yield no results, except eventually an error message would appear telling me that the CMD window "failed to execute in a timely manner" (or something close to that).

After updating my Windows 10 last night, the sound went out completely. Shortly after changing the speaker properties to 24-bit, 192000, the sound came back. However, it seems like any music I listen to no longer has any bass. Is there anything else I need to do to get my sound back to normal?

I'm asking is if there is a way to make the Windows 10 taskbar completely transparent so it eliminates the bar at the bottom of the screen. I've used 2 different programs to make it clear, but both also changes the Windows start place back to the windows 7 version. These 2 programs were Startisback plus plus and Classic Shell. I would not mind downloading another application as long as I have the option to keep the windows 10 start the same.

I'm running a custom built PC with win10 and an ASUS P9X79 WS motherboard.
I did a free upgrade from windows 7 ulti to win10 pro, everything was smooth for a month on win10, and the whole year prior with windows 7, it was built within a year ago.
So these updates appeared in the win10 update section:
Intel - Other hardware - Intel® Xeon®Â E7 v2/Xeon® E5 v2/Core i7 Power Control Unit 2 - 0EC2
Intel - Other hardware - Intel® Xeon®Â E7 v2/Xeon® E5 v2/Core i7 Power Control Unit 3 - 0EC3
Intel - Other hardware - Intel® Xeon®Â E7 v2/Xeon® E5 v2/Core i7 Integrated Memory Controller 0 Target Address/Thermal Registers - 0EA8
As well as many more.
I clicked to install the updates, then nothing happened, i let it sit over night, woke up still nothing. Restarted my PC and boom.
Asus bios screen says CPU overheat/CPU fan not working. I ignored them so it would boot and here I am. I included a JPEG of speedfan's stats on my PC, showing no fans operating, as well as high temps on core 0 and such.
I then worried maybe it's unsupported and I made a rookie move doing that update. Sure enough I went online and the ASUS website indicates no support for win10 64 bit drivers for my motherboard.
Now I'm wondering how to undo such a thing, I really don't want to use windows restore, as it says it will erase ALL my apps no matter what. Which is strange to me as windows 7 was able to revert back without getting rid of a single app. I'm also wondering if there's another restore function I'm unaware of that doesn't require deleting everything I've installed app-wise.

I have 2 copies of windows one on my 3TB HDD and one on my 250gb ssd. I would like to know how to COMPLETELY delete windows off of my HDD without formatting the partition. I know about mscomfig but I heard it doesn't delete windows of your disk space. How do I remove windows from my HDD disk space without formatting the partition?

I upgraded to Win10 yesterday. upgrade could be a keyword for the future but since I upgraded everything has been perfect except my connection to the Internet. It's fine on startup but once I go on Edge, Chrome, steam or Skype it stops about 3 minutes in when using them. It doesn't come back unless I restart.
I'm using a Ethernet connect. All wireless devices are working fine, My LAN adapter is a Broadcom Netlink Gigabyte Ethernet. Turning router off and on again doesn't work. All drivers are up to date, apparently. No vpn.
I removed my McAfee to see if that changed anything but still no luck.
I don't know what to do now because this goes beyond my knowledge of windows 10 and computers.
My PC is over 5 years old, maybe that's a factor but it still surpassed all the requirements to run Windows 10
This brings me back to Upgrading and not full fresh install. I've too many family photos and other valuable projects. I dont have an external hard drive either, which I need soon as my current one is getting louder, but that's not the issue here. I just want to get on the Internet and enjoy my 120mb Internet speed!

im running windows 10 in an active directory environment. If I log in with my own account some of the programs are not available for example edge. It seems to me that the profile is not completely loaded somehow. Looks like this:
For me it looks like if somehow the modern apps would not be loaded. (If I search after Edge it's also not available)
If I log in with another test-account it works fine. I also tried to make the user profile new but it did not work.
Did I maybe not delete some parts of the ruined user account? (I deleted everything under c: Users)

I have done everything I can to turn off Aero Peek. I'm referring to the thumbnail previews you see when you mouse over an open item on your bottom taskbar. For example, if I have Word open but am looking at my desktop, if I mouse over the "Microsoft Word" icon in the taskbar (quick launch taskbar) at the bottom of the screen, I see a small thumbnail image of the document I'm editing.
I just want to disable those little previews / thumbnails when my mouse moves into the lower taskbar and moves over one of the open programs.
I have disabled this in taskbar properties, but that isn't working.
I went into Regedit and set every item I could fine labeled "AeroPeek" to 0.
I'm still seeing those thumbnails.

I've clean installed W10 on my Dell laptop and then installed my programs including the Dell utilities Dell Support Assist, Dell Quickset & Dell Digital Delivery.
I eventually decided these no longer offer me anything useful and have uninstalled them. However, Autoruns is currently showing the following are loaded:
Services:
Dell DataVault
DellDataVaultWiz
Drivers:
DDDriver
DellProf
Installed Directory:
C:Program FilesDellDellDataVault
I'm no fan of software which doesn't clean up properly after uninstalling it. I've disabled the above services and all is fine but I'm wary of disabling the drivers since I decided to keep the Dell Touchpad driver.
Can I disable these drivers and better still, is there a way of completely removing the Dell services and drivers which their uninstaller has failed to remove?
