All of a sudden I have large green checkmarks on many of my files, including those on my desktop.   Not all files, just some.  Including, .pdf, .wif, jpg, adobe files too.   Any idea's to remove them?

@Gracie438,

 

I reviewed your post and I understand that there are checkmarks on the desktop icons.

 

Don’t worry, I assure you I will try my best to get this sorted.

 

The checkmark, it indicates that the file or files that have are check-marked on it are synchronized with Microsoft OneDrive. You can get rid of these by exiting OneDrive from the system tray.

 

Let me know how it goes and you have a great day!

 

P.S: Welcome to the HP Support Community 😊
