Windows 10 - Accidentally Clicked Make Available Offline for 700 GB drive.... How to stop sync?

Travis_JP
Explorer | Level 4

I was trying to access the folder in a new window and stutter clicked on the context menu and clicked "Make Available Offline" for a drive that's 700 GB of design files..  Aside from quitting the app to prevent it from syncing the entire drive and bricking my hard drive to capacity, is there a way to undo this setting?  I'm afraid to restart the app because I don't know if it will continue the syncing process.

 

Thanks,

 

T.
