Remove OneDrive Personal Icon

This is a quick blog about how to remove the OneDrive Personal Icon from Windows 10. Some users find seeing multiple OneDrive icons in their file browser confusing.

So, I created a script to remove this.

Start-Transcript -Path "C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\IntuneManagementExtension\Logs\RemoveOneDrivePersonalIcon.log"

$OneDriverPersonalIcon = Get-ItemProperty -Path "HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Desktop\NameSpace\{018D5C66-4533-4307-9B53-224DE2ED1FE6}" -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue

If ($OneDriverPersonalIcon){
    try {
        
        Get-Item -Path "HKCU:\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Desktop\NameSpace\{018D5C66-4533-4307-9B53-224DE2ED1FE6}" | Remove-Item -Force -Verbose
        Write-Output "Remove OneDrive Personal Icon"
    }
    catch {
        Write-Error "Error: $($_.Exception.Message)"
    }

}
else {
    Write-Output "OneDrive Personal Icon not found"
}

The script logs to the “C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\IntuneManagementExtension\Logs\” folder so you can pick it up with the “collect diagnostics” button in Microsoft Intune.

You can also create a Win32App to package the script. Look at another post of mine to create a comparable Win32App Package.
Another option is to create a Remediation to do so. Check out this post on another remediation.
