If you’re also one such user wondering how to disable or uninstall OneDrive from their system, read on as we tell you how you can remove OneDrive from Windows 10: Remove OneDrive from Windows 10 Using Command Prompt OneDrive in itself is a very memory hogging software which uses up a lot of system resources as well as network data and is completely unnecessary for any user who wishes not to use it.
