I Don't Want OneDrive!
That's something I hear relatively often. Personally, I use it and love it, but not everyone feels the same way.
Honestly, in my opinion Microsoft has really messed up how they present OneDrive. (This is a family newsletter, or I'd use stronger language.) Bad feature decisions along with the feeling that it gets rammed down your throat leads to a really, really bad user experience.
Particularly when it comes to its relationship to Microsoft Office.
Let's fix that, shall we? How Do I Disable OneDrive in Office 365? will help.
