"Set up OneDrive" dialog box keeps appearing every login

Question

Every time I start up my windows 10 Home edition PC, after a few minutes this thing will pop up.

I always have to close it, then go to its tray icon and close it there.

I don't want to use it. How can I stop it from starting up every day?

I use a local win10 account, not connected to online

edit: my task manager

Click Start-> type in taskmgr. Once Task Manager is loaded up click on the Startup tab. Click on Microsoft OneDrive once to highlight it and select disable in the lower right hand corner. Once you disable it reboot and it shouldn't start with your system anymore.

If it is not listed in your startup then I would suggest taking a look at this article: https://techjourney.net/disable-or-uninstall-onedrive-completely-in-windows-10/

@RegisteredUser can you provide a screenshot update? also take a look at what services are starting up. – hyperj123 Sep 29 '16 at 02:54

The article would not apply to me since i'm running win10 home edition, so no gpedit.msc. sorry for not mentioning – Registered User Oct 01 '16 at 02:15
The article shows how to do it through the registry and command prompt as well for Home users. – hyperj123 Oct 02 '16 at 08:28
Tested it for a few days. Registry edit worked fine, thank you – Registered User Oct 12 '16 at 01:32
