I installed OneDrive and now I have 2 OneDrive folders in my File Explorer in the left panel like this:

Henry-Personal
Henry-Personal

Both are expandable and have the same folders, so how do I remove one of them? There is no option when right clicking on either one of them.

FYI I did uninstall OneDrive and was using Insync linked to Google Drive, but I uninstalled Insyc after copying folders to OneDrive

Wait problem not solved. The reg file removed the extra OneDrive on left pane. Now when I pin Henry-Personal to start menu every time I reboot or start Windows it no longer shows up on my start menu.

I am running Windows Pro so did this reg file I downloaded the wrong way to remove extra OneDrive entry? Do I have to fix it in Group Policy? so that OneDrive start menu retains pinned OneDrive in start menu?
