Local dependency removal will not make any changes to App registrations on your Azure portal or to App permissions on your Office 365 portal. If you have removed ESET OneDrive scanner locally because of network or connection issues with Microsoft OneDrive servers, you will need to manually remove the ESET OneDrive scanner app from App registrations in Azure. See the OneDrive scan setup to find and delete the ESET OneDrive scanner manually in your Azure portal.

If you encounter any of the following error messages during ESET OneDrive scanner unregistration, see your error message detail for a suggested solution:
