    Same issue here. Uninstalled and reinstalled is useless.

    I downloaded and installed 23.054.0313.0003. However, the info.plist states:

    <key>CFBundleVersion</key>

	<string>23061.0319.0003</string>

    When I installed it, I did take my system offline and checked while remaining offline. It appears the link MS has provided: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/onedrive-release-notes-845dcf18-f921-435e-bf28-4e24b95e5fc0#OSVersion=Mac

    ...is not the version as stated.

    UPDATE:

    However, I tried a different link on the page above in the table under Production ring - Standalone universal and was able to download version 23.054 (I might be just losing my marbles at this point and was mistakenly trying to install the later version). I did try removing update files but OneDrive fails to start:

    For a paid service...this is unbelievable and unacceptable; I suppose $79/yr isn't much so you get what you pay for. OneDrive app has worked for a few years now without issue. However lately syncing has been very slow which is why I installed the latest version. MS solution is to upgrade the OS is ridiculous?! There was also no warning regarding EOL - if that is how this app is handled than silent upgrade shouldn't be allowed. Why not just provide an older version that works with Catalina?! The official OneDrive documentation states any OS older than 10.14 is no longer supported, not 10.15:

    We no longer update or allow new installations of OneDrive on macOS versions older than 10.14*. In order to enable OneDrive updates and new installations, we recommend updating to macOS 11.0 or newer.*

    My 365 is coming up for renewal...I'm likely going to cancel and look at other options. Google is looking like a pretty good paid option for software (Google Docs, Google Sheets...all free) plus their cloud service is hands-down superior than OneDrive. In fact, I've had issues when I've tried uploading (sharing) files to OneDrive via mobile. OD would get part way and sit for several minutes before completing. Usually I just end up uploading to Google Drive and it is completed almost instantly. There have been times I've finished uploading and OneDrive is still hasn't made progress. In terms of the software aspect, I'd prefer to find an alternative which uses the old one-time purchase license.

    MS no longer king supreme (has not been for a while) for Documentation and Spreadsheets; Google has come a long way. I never use OneNote or PowerPoint. Outlook, I can access online via a browser or use Apple Mail. Subscription-based software is a joke. I understand for something that is actually service - cloud services, but not for software. Essentially, we're renting software. Apparently, MS has headed with way with Windows 11. End users actually don't own the OS. I used to use Adobe for many years then eventually, was forced to use subscription as the industry moved forward.

    I have a local 1TB backup...and I'll just use that as my main backup instead of OneDrive, which I use in addition to. Going old school! I've had my external drive since 2012 - and it still works 100%! However, I do understand there are many businesses depend on the cloud method. Cloud does offer a certain added convenience. BTW, the latest version of Microsoft 365 and Office (16.71.23031200) are no longer compatible with Catalina 10.15.7.

    ~~ rant over! lol
