Pause OneDrive sync using cmd
I would like to know how to pause onedrive from syncing using a command in the cmd. I am doing this because I have my .minecraft folder shared in onedrive and when I am playing minecraft, it is really slow and onedrive tries to sync the data that is being used. Right now I have to pause it with right clicking the folder and clicking pause but I would like to know the code to stop it with cmd so I can made a .bat file to pause onedrive and then start minecraft. If anyone knows how to do this, please let me know.
Thanks,

I am not aware of a method to control OneDrive from just a command console by itself. You can pause it through windows explorer though.

You can write an AutoIt/AHK script I suppose to automate the right-clicking and pausing, then execution of Minecraft. As for script access to OneDrive sync directly, perhaps it's possible via PowerShell and the Live API: 1, 2, 3.

You can also useprocess -s onedrive.exefrom beyondlogic to sleep the process. You run the same command line to resume.

Have you tried: taskkill /f /im (onedrive's sync process)?

You can stop it by running a batch file that will loop so it will stop onedrive until you exit:
:Loop
Taskkill /f /im onedrive.exe
Goto loop
If you want to do it manually, then simply just do Taskkill /f /im onedrive.exe
Please run this batch file once you have started minecraft.
