Microsoft 365 and Office | OneDrive | For home | Windows
A Microsoft file hosting and synchronization service.
Why should we do all the work they installed Personal Vault without our permission they can remove it the same way.
Please help me disable personal vault I didn't want it and I can't get rid of it.

2025-04-06T07:21:46+00:00 I had the same problem - I emptied my personal vault but still OneDrive would constantly stop with:
Then my OneDrive just crashed with Exception code: 0xc000027b
I had to re-install and restart my OneDrive, and it began re-syncing all my local files.
As luck would have it, this time OneDrive ignored my (already empty) personal vault, and it hasn't bothered me since.
But it was sheer luck.
It appears Vlase's suggestion (to reset OneDrive) has the same benefit.

2025-04-06T05:12:48+00:00 I am also unable to disable person vault. The option is not there and it is causing syncing issues. I really don't want it. Is there another way to remove/disable it? April 2025
