Group policy settings are your friend...and Windows still messes with those too.
Man I hate one drive. Can it be removed/uninstalled?
In short: yes.
Will it also take you a short time to do, and be certain it won't be magically back next Windows update? Not really, and once in a while they break the current system on how to uninstall it.
Hey, I know everyone wants a nice software experience.
But in Microsoft's defense, why shouldn't every user allow Microsoft to extract at regular intervals a part of the monetary value of users' life-force until death? OneDrive and Windows SaaS is a great model, actually, that enables exciting opportunities to vampirically suck dollars from bank accounts of every single user continuously forever.
Has nobody even thought of the substantial ARPU benefits?
I honestly can't think of anyone that actually uses Edge; it's ~~shitty~~ Chrome wearing a Microsoft-issued t-shirt.
I remember being hype about a new version of windows. Like win95 -> win98. Or even win2k. It was insanely nice.

But the OneDrive shit is annoying. You get like one chance during the install to deny it, and if you miss it then fuck you.
Does anyone know how to delete OneDrive (disable it and delete all the data in it) without deleting my Microsoft account? There's random old pictures backed up there, I use my MS account for Minecraft and nothing else.
I've tried but there's no button for disabling it that I can find on the website?? All the instructions talk about some kind of OneDrive folder but I'm on Linux so of course I don't have that.
Had to move to a Win11 machine, because of work - I've never been so frustrated with a Windows interface in my life. For reference, I've used everything from Windows 3.11 to 10, enjoying most upgrades (except Vista). Never have I experienced such UI and usability downgrade.
Windows 8 was a nightmare unless you installed Classic Shell, then Microsoft eventually figured out that desktops aren't tablets and deprecated Metro after about a year of people bitching.
