Solved Is there a master switch to turn off all syncing?
There was a way in W10.
I think I figured out OneDrive, I wiped it all out and turned it off. I also don't want to be sync'd across devices I need them to be unique. I have removed all other devices from my MS account. I have turned off all the switches I could find with search. Is there anything in GPEDIT or the registry that will stop all this?
Sorry to rant but all this syncing and 2 step verification is becoming a headache.
