When you press "Unlink PC" in OneDrive settings, it means that you are disconnecting the selected PC from your OneDrive account. Here's what happens when you perform this action:
1. OneDrive sync will be turned off: All files and folders that were previously synced between your PC and OneDrive will no longer be synchronized.
2. OneDrive settings will be reset: Any customization or preferences you had set up for OneDrive on that PC will be reset to their default state.
3. OneDrive files will stay on your PC: The files and folders that were previously synced with OneDrive will remain on your PC. They will no longer be updated or synchronized with the cloud storage.
4. OneDrive won't be accessible on that PC: Once you unlink the PC, you will no longer have easy access to your OneDrive files and won't be able to access them through File Explorer or the OneDrive app.
It is important to note that unlinking your PC doesn't delete any of your files or folders from OneDrive or your PC; it only stops the synchronization and connectivity between the two. If you want to completely remove the OneDrive files from your PC, you will need to manually delete them.
