Hi All,

I am trying to figure out how to remove "Move to OneDrive" from legacy context menu:

1633795106805.png

The old trick:

Code:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Shell Extensions\Blocked]
"{CB3D0F55-BC2C-4C1A-85ED-23ED75B5106B}"="OneDrive"

does not work anymore.


Any clues guys how to get rid of that on Windows 11?'

Thanks.

If you do not use onedrive disable it in group policy; you can always use the onedrive app and it does not have the move to onedrive

I use OneDrive and I want to keep using desktop version. All i want to achieve here is to get rid of mentions context menu option.

Anyone has a clue how do that?

found the solution. if you have ccleaner you can open tools and then uninstall, scroll down and you'll find onedrive without thumbnail, uninstall it then all onedrive context menu is gone. but after a reboot the'll be back. hope someone have time to make this permanent.

I have disabled onedrive and uninstalled it. However I use the Onedrive app. I have found it to be less annoying. Oh yes the move to onedrive is gone this wya

Prefer using group policy over registry treaks. It is much easier to reverse and no risk to registry corruption

The attached file no longer works. Does anyone know a more recent method to remove OneDrive from the contextual menu?

run this
Powershell:
Remove-Item "Registry::HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\PackagedCom\Package\Microsoft.OneDriveSync*" -Confirm:$false -Force -Recurse
in powershell as admin, to have it working after onedrive updates you should set acl on HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\PackagedCom\Package\Microsoft.OneDriveSync key and change command to
Code:
Remove-Item "Registry::HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\PackagedCom\Package\Microsoft.OneDriveSync*\*" -Confirm:$false -Force -Recurse
I did not look into how to change acl on registry, maybe someone else can add it

aside from getting rid of the context menu item, what else is removed/changed when you disable onedrive using GP? also.. you say you uninstalled it but you use the app.. idk what that means.. ive always used the same program, the one that ends up in your system tray and gives you the onedrive directory links in explorer.. is there some other onedrive app?
