It's actually REALLY HARD to disable OneDrive. I've tried about 3 separate methods and the damn thing keeps re-appearing. From what I read, it looks like Group Policy might work, but I don't have AD in our environment and haven't been able to test it.

You don't need AD to set the local security policy.

Just type "gpedit.msc" into run. Then follow this[0].

That makes me terribly uncomfortable because Microsoft is likely to just silently turn it back on in the future.

I used Powershell scripts to uninstall a bunch of the bloatware (XBox Music, Money, etc...) and they just come back. It's very frustrating.
