Try following one by one and check after each

A. Reset - Try to reset your Onedrive (Please note that no data will be lost because of below step)

Windows Key+R > Copy the below and paste and Enter

%localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\onedrive.exe /reset

After few minutes start Onedrive again. if this doesn't appear, copy the below and paste into Run and Enter

%localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\onedrive.exe

B. Unlink - If reset doesn't work -Right click on your Onedrive > Settings > Unlink this PC

Wait for few minutes

Link it again and then synch.

(This will synch all files again, hence will take time)

C. Reinstall - If even Unlink doesn't work - Uninstall Onedrive and install latest version -

Let's try to completely uninstall OneDrive:

Windows Key+X > Windows Powershell (Admin).

Copy the below line, paste into Powershell and Enter

taskkill /f /im OneDrive.exe

This will terminate any OneDrive processe

Copy the below, paste into Powershell and Enter

if you’re using 32-bit Windows 10

%SystemRoot%\System32\OneDriveSetup.exe /uninstall

if you’re using 64-bit Windows 10

%SystemRoot%\SysWOW64\OneDriveSetup.exe /uninstall

(Note - It is recommended that you create a backup of your registry before modifying registry as suggested below so that if you commit some mistake, you will be able to restore - https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/322756...)

Now Windows Key+R > Type Regedit and Enter

Go to this path

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\OneDrive

You can remove all folders that include OneDrive numeric version (example - 18.172.0826.0010 folder)

and from the Accounts folder, remove all the folders inside

After that restart computer and install One Drive latest version from this link:

Welcome to the Microsoft Community. Thanks for participating.

The incident that appears to be related to a failure of Office applications on your computer.

In this case, I consider it necessary to perform an Office repair and restart your computer to verify the operation of the OneDrive files on your computer.
