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 have the same problem. The upload feature was already turned off, so Windows still tries to upload the photos but tells me it can't. I have an Android phone (Pixel 2).

    So annoying. I liked Onedrive more than dropbox!

    Same problem here. All settings set to "not upload", yet they still do and my onedrive account is now full due to photo uploads
