I unknowingly synced the SharePoint folder to my OneDrive, and since then, I’ve been having trouble accessing and fully syncing it, as well as removing it. I tried all the options, including right-clicking and removing it, and stopping the sync from the OneDrive account, but it’s never getting removed or deleted. I want to fully remove that sync from my OneDrive. What is the best way to unsync or remove the SharePoint folder that’s synced to my OneDrive?
