Hello!

Is possible run only OneDrive for Business or Onedrive personal, separately?

I mean, if needed, run one of them but another is turned off.

Thanks!

    Hi @IntSed-1407

    Yes, you should have two different cloud symbols in your systray (if you run business/personal). From there you can right click > Go to Settings > Settings tab and turn off OneDrive when you sign into Windows.

    In start menu only 1 blue

    If, in settings, i disable run on system start, turns off both of them.

    Question is, possible on system start run only 1 of them?

    Thanks!

    Thanks, for answer, CharlesQi-MSFT!

    In that case, why when i go to OneDrive web and choose synchronise, (look 1., 2., 3. images) launches just OneDrive for Business, not Personal?

    Thanks, emizhang-msft, for answer!

    Thanks for info, Migration OneDrive Personal to OneDrive for business, is not really i want to have. May be also there is something, for me?

    Better, if i just can run in that order:

    1. run OneDrive Personal
    2. run OneDrive for business

    Reverse order is possible if i use internet browser and use synchronisation option.
