Adobe Elements Keeps Trying to import from OneDrive

I just got a new laptop and re-installed Adobe Elements.  After launching organizer I did a bulk import.  The program automatically selected both the Photos on my laptop (which I want catalogued) and photos in my OneDrive.  I deleted the OneDrive folder.  The first import worked OK.  But then Elements indicated it found more files and began again trying to import from OneDrive (I see download prompts).  Is there another place I need to exclude OneDrive folder from what is watched?

I'm guessing that you removed One Drive from the Bulk Import dialog.  You may also need to remove it from the File>Watched Folders menu dialog.  They are not identical dialogs and can be a little confusing.

I deleted the OneDrive folder.

 

More details please. Do you mean you deleted the folder or its contents? Is it possible that Onedrive tries to sync back the Cloud version of your photos to the OneDrive folder on your disk?

What is indicated in your watched folders selection?
