Then it's time to start all over again, with a new protocol. Ever tried to use a worse more clunky, problematic, and outdated OS? Of course not.

I went in to OneDrive folders and removed the back-up of pictures, that seemed to work but now they are blocked out again. I don't seem to be able to get back to onedrive again through the folder option.
I went into settings and see the onedrive cloud storage but I don't see anywhere to unsync or disable onedrive. I don't see the onedrive, do I need to download an app?
Thanks for your help.
