How does this happen? Why is OneDrive allowed to partition 200gb of my hard-drive for pointless copies I don't want without even being linked or currently installed? Furthermore, how is it that when I try to delete the Desktop from my OneDrive folder that my actual

When I tried signing into a Work/School account, it required a Microsoft authenticator app verification code. I had recently started using a new phone but I kept my same phone number and i-Cloud account.

I'm just wondering if there's any way around this, I tried using

I turned on the "Sync with OneDrive" setting on my phone, then it connected to the email address that I use for the google apps on the phone, not the email address that I wanted to use. I managed to sign onto the OneDrive app using the email that I wanted, and in the app, it says that I am connected to the Samsung gallery, yet in the settings of the phone, it says that my OneDrive account is "frozen", it cannot get any data, and that it is unable to sync. How on earth do I fix this?
