    Be careful before applying registry tweaks, and read the description for them if they are available, don't and search google if they don't.

    ; Removes Downloads folder from This PC on x64
    [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace\{088e3905-0323-4b02-9826-5d99428e115f}]
    ; Removes Pictures folder from This PC on x64
    [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace\{24ad3ad4-a569-4530-98e1-ab02f9417aa8}]
    ; Removes Music folder from This PC on x64
    [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace\{3dfdf296-dbec-4fb4-81d1-6a3438bcf4de}]
    ; Removes Desktop folder from This PC on x64
    [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace\{B4BFCC3A-DB2C-424C-B029-7FE99A87C641}]
    ; Removes Documents folder from This PC on x64
    [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace\{d3162b92-9365-467a-956b-92703aca08af}]
    ; Removes Videos folder from This PC on x64
    [-HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace\{f86fa3ab-70d2-4fc7-9c99-fcbf05467f3a}]

    and

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons\NewStartPanel]
    ; 1 - Hide This PC
    "{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}"=dword:00000001
    ; 1 - Hide Control Panel
    "{5399E694-6CE5-4D6C-8FCE-1D8870FDCBA0}"=dword:00000001
    ; 1 - Hide User's Files
    "{59031a47-3f72-44a7-89c5-5595fe6b30ee}"=dword:00000001
    ; 1 - Hide Recycle Bin
    "{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"=dword:00000001
    ; 1 - Hide Network
    "{F02C1A0D-BE21-4350-88B0-7367FC96EF3C}"=dword:00000001

    Here is why you don't any your icons. replace it whith :

    [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\HideDesktopIcons\NewStartPanel]
    ; SHOW This PC
    "{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}"=dword:00000000
    ; SHOW Control Panel
    "{5399E694-6CE5-4D6C-8FCE-1D8870FDCBA0}"=dword:00000000
    ; SHOW User's Files
    "{59031a47-3f72-44a7-89c5-5595fe6b30ee}"=dword:00000000
    ; SHOW Recycle Bin
    "{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}"=dword:00000000
    ; SHOW Network
    "{F02C1A0D-BE21-4350-88B0-7367FC96EF3C}"=dword:00000000

    But don't apply it blindly, choose the one you need, never apply a big reg tweak you have never tested on your live system, test it before, line by line, or in a VM

    About 3 pages ago, someone posted how to turn off Windows Defender for a single user. How do you disable it COMPLETELY?

    DO NOT APPLY OR PATCH YOUR LIVE SYSTEM WITH A MEGA REG TWEAK WITHOUT TESTING IT IN VM OR READ DESCRIPTION FOR EVERY ENTRY, IF NO DESCRIPTION SEARCH IT ON GOOGLE THEN TEST IT WITH A REG BACKUP.

    Seriously ... reg tweaks are often a personal preference, on a specific system, for certain needs.
    At least create a backup of your entire registry before applying a mega reg tweak.

    Code:
    @echo off
    cls
    
    set x86="%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\OneDriveSetup.exe"
    set x64="%SYSTEMROOT%\SysWOW64\OneDriveSetup.exe"
    
    echo Closing OneDrive process.
    echo.
    taskkill /f /im OneDrive.exe > NUL 2>&1
    ping 127.0.0.1 -n 5 > NUL 2>&1
    
    echo Uninstalling OneDrive.
    echo.
    if exist %x64% (
    %x64% /uninstall
    ) else (
    %x86% /uninstall
    )
    ping 127.0.0.1 -n 5 > NUL 2>&1
    
    echo Removing OneDrive leftovers.
    echo.
    rd "%USERPROFILE%\OneDrive" /Q /S > NUL 2>&1
    rd "C:\OneDriveTemp" /Q /S > NUL 2>&1
    rd "%LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\OneDrive" /Q /S > NUL 2>&1
    rd "%PROGRAMDATA%\Microsoft OneDrive" /Q /S > NUL 2>&1 
    
    echo Removeing OneDrive from the Explorer Side Panel.
    echo.
    REG DELETE "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{018D5C66-4533-4307-9B53-224DE2ED1FE6}" /f > NUL 2>&1
    REG DELETE "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Wow6432Node\CLSID\{018D5C66-4533-4307-9B53-224DE2ED1FE6}" /f > NUL 2>&1
    
    pause
    i don't know who is the creator of the script, but it works perfectly and all credits to him
