Hi,

I am creating a new Windows 8.1 image for our organization.  I am de-provisioning a bunch of the built in Appx packages that our users do not need (ie xbox games, food&drink etc). 

Our users use the Onedrive for Business application that comes with Office 2013.  I would like to remove the One Drive (Personal) App built into Windows 8.1 as it is causing our users some confusion.  I do not have the "Uninstall option when I right Click it, and it is not listed when I run dism /online /get-provisionedappxpackages.

Is there any way to remove OneDrive (Personal) from my image, and only have Onedrive for Business available?

Thanks

Hi,

Unlike other apps, you can't remove OneDrive.

Hi Rosy_55,

Yes, since OneDrive is built into the operating system in Windows 8.1, you cannot uninstall it. You can however disable all of the syncing features one of these methods: disable each syncing feature individually or unlink your Microsoft account from your Windows account. OneDrive syncs both settings and files in Windows 8.1 so you have to turn off syncing any settings.
