Delete SYNC settings individually in Windows 10

How Can I delete my theme & Other SYNC settings individually from Cloud in Windows 10?   When I Sync my settings, I found lots of problem. I want to delete them permanently. 

Hi Ashrafur,

Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community. We are sorry for the inconvenience caused.

I see that you need to delete theme & other sync settings individually from Cloud in Windows 10.

Please answer the below questions to assist you better.

1. When you say “Cloud” are you referring to OneDrive or other cloud applications?

2. What are the exact issues you are facing when you are trying to sync in the Settings?

When sync is turned on, Windows keeps track of the settings that you care about and sets them for you on all your Windows 10 devices.

If you are referring to the sync settings on the Windows 10 devices please follow the below steps and check if it helps,

1. Type Settings in the Search box and then Enter.

2. Click on Accounts and then Sync your settings.

3. Here you can select the Individual sync settings whether you want it in ON or Off state.

For better information i would also suggest you to refer the article below on About sync settings on Windows 10 devices,

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-my/windows-10/about-sync-settings-on-windows-10-devices

Hope this information is helpful. Please do let us know if you need further assistance, we’ll be glad to assist you.

Well as soon as my enter my Microsoft account details for signing in my Windows 10 laptop, some settings sync up and is causing to disable my keyboard functionality wiz. no keyboard key input works, nor on board keyboard neither external wired/wireless! I happen to use onscreen keyboard for rescue but that too temp, as disassociating my Microsoft account on the laptop and switching to local admin account neither reverts back my keyboard funtionlity. Finally I happen to re-install my windows afresh(thrice!!! burning my motherboard and RAM! luckily it was covered under warranty but now its no more under warranty.) So I cant risk to sign in my Microsoft account with my Windows 10 laptop. Laptop is Lenevo Flex2 14D and account is *** Email address is removed for privacy ***. Am running Windows 10 Pro 64bit.

i don't know if you have found a solution to your problem, but I totally understand about user account corruption. I just don't know how to remove the issue from the cloud (Microsoft). I have reinstalled (clean installed at least 20 times) since January 1st. The corruption follows me from one install to another. Even if I turn syncing off. If I put another account on my pc and delete the corrupt user, it syncs the badness to the other account. The madness is endless. I have group policies in my registry. I don't have group policy in my home edition of win 10. I don't belong to any domain.... I feel like I have an alien in my laptop. No one seems to understand this nightmare. Every one says "your ram is bad" probably so by now, but that isn't the only issue. If you have figured out how to get rid of the stuff from Microsoft servers, please let me know.
