OneDrive not running automatically on Windows 10 because of Registry setting

Question

Every time I reboot Windows 10 the registry setting

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Policies\Microsoft\Windows\OneDrive

Is reset by windows 10 to value

DisableFileSyncNGSC = DWORD:1

Which means that OneDrive does not run until I manually change the Registry DWORD setting back to zero.

Is there a way to permanently set this Registry value to zero so OneDrive runs without intervention?

Answer 1

Try running "GPEDIT.MSC"

First, navigate to:

Computer Configuration | Administrative Templates | Windows Components | OneDrive

Then check out the settings.. specifically:

• Prevent the usage of OneDrive for file storage
