    Try this:
    Press the Windows key + R
    Enter this text into the Run window and press Enter:

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

    That will reset OneDrive
    After a couple of minutes, the OneDrive cloud icon should show in the system tray.

    If it doesn’t start, open Start, find OneDrive and start it

    Hi Jason.

    I tried that and the onedrive icon didn't come back up so i manually tried to restart it.  that also didn't work.  Then I did another restart and it didn't work.  Do you have any other ideas?

    I tried that before and again now but it goes back to the same error message.  It didn't even ask me to log in again for the setup or pick the default drive.
