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 do not care how old this thread is, this is the first result that pops up when you google this issue therefore it needs attending. This information is no longer correct as onedrives menu options have changed. You guys need to put down the new way of disabling this. Also probably remove that feature period.

    sorry Leroy.

    this is a completely different issue this is about one drive synching.

    suggest that you start a new thread, but not sure why you are connecting your phone to PC.  

    Iphone photos can be setup yo automatically upload to icloud. you can install icloud app on your Dell PC and it will download those images to the PC

    really need a bit more precise info please.

    What has changed? - i.e. what was set before 

    Are you talking about a phone? iPad, laptop PC? and which sort?

    I have an Iphone 11, and when i connect to a Dell Laptop, running

    Windows 10 Windows 8.1 Windows 7, Office 2013.    When i connect Iphone, to laptop, it automatically opens the Microsoft Pictures .    I do not want to use this, would like to Open ITunes and download pictures into the I cloud.

    Something has changed that I can not find the OneDrive menu or the camera roll option. Please respond with the latest steps to stop photos from automatically going to OneDrive. Would like my option as before where the pop-up menu gave you options on where to import photos and their destination. Thank you.
