Brand new DELL machine, OneDrive shortcut in arabic المخزن الشخصي -- How to remove it?
Please see the screenshot.
The situation is as this. A new Dell notebook was purchased and initial Windows started. With this, OneDrive was deploying a shortcut, named المخزن الشخصي, in arabic, which relates to the Vault feature.
- Firstly, no one requested vault to be active or enabled per default.
- Secondly, deleting this shortcut will re-create it instantly - in the wrong language
Vault was disabled online (a very peculiar process btw. - instead of disabling it within the app's settings) - but the character are still wrong and the shortcut cannot be deleted or changed.
Please review and, if possible, sketch a solution.
Kind Regards

TechCommunityUser929451 On a new machine I'd be asking serious questions of the vendor, as you may have a compromised machine.
A wipe and reinstall of Windows would be my minimum response.
