I had around 5000 pictures in my camera roll(Lumia 540) which were automatically uploaded in my onedrive folder. Recently due to low space, I have transferred all my pictures to my PC. But my phone is automatically downloading from onedrive and syncing.  Even though I stopped syncing, I tried deleting pictures from my phone also. 

How to stop my phone automatically download the pictures from one drive. ?

    I don't find Camera upload option in Onedrive app.  I switched off the auto upload in photos app already. 

    And my phone still downloads files from Onedrive. I don't have storage space in my phone.
