    In the notifications area click on the one drive icon (cloud)...Click on settings....on the settings tab uncheck 'start OneDrive automatically when I sign in'
    Go to the 'Auto-save' tab make sure 'This PC only' is selected. Uncheck any other boxes on this tab.
    Go to 'Account' tab...click 'Choose folders' make sure 'Sync all files and folders in my OneDrive' is unchecked....
    Your OneDrive won't backup any more......However, make sure that you have backups of your files somewhere else....
