Remove cached credentials for MS Onedrive using a script












0















I have a need to be able to remove onedrive cached credentials from local machines from the windows credential manager using a script
The reason - When a user is prompted to change their O365 password for some reason the local cached version of the password linked to OneDrive doesn't update and users start to get Sync errors.



The user could go and manually remove this entry but for some this is asking alot ;)



Any pointers would be great. Prefer Powershell but VB is ok too.



Regards

  • What has you research shown you so far? Have you seen this yet? windowsitpro.com/systems-management/… Have you made any actual attempts at scripting this yet? If so, where exactly are you getting stuck?

  • In Credential Manager, there is OneDrive Cache Credential, but this is for OneDrive Personal. For OneDrive Business, it might be listed as SharePoint. Might review your Credentials and see if it is SharePoint.

Windows comes with a command-line utility for the Credential Manager component: cmdkey



I don't have a OneDrive for Business account to test with, but you should see cached credentials in the output of:



cmdkey /list


Use PowerShell to grab the ouput from /list, extract the target name and call



cmdkey /delete:targetname
