Dear Support Team
As a result of the recent OneDrive update 23061.0319 (installed on my Mac on the 1st of Apr 2023) OneDrive app won't sync or open on my MacBook Pro (Catalina v10.15.7).
Despite following the steps as (as published in Microsoft Support Centre and also Microsoft Community) OneDrive won't open or function at all.
My feeling is that the new update creates an issue with the Catalina Operating system which unable it to open/function/sync..
Therefore, OneDrive is not working appropriately.
In order to resolve the matter I have followed the below steps and no luck:
Would be highly appreciated if you provide some guidance on the matter.
Many thanks in advance.
Regards
DR

What's best way to get rid of the OneDrive I installed from the App Store? Just drag it to the trash can?
(I come from a Windows background, so I always assume that uninstalling software is never as easy as it should be.)

Uninstall non-working OneDrive
My OneDrive also updated to 23.076.0409 today (via the Apple App Store app). And it still will not load on the latest version of Catalina.
I have not been able to use OneDrive for a full month now and this has really forced me to turn to some unacceptable and frustrating workarounds.
A little love from Microsoft would really be appreciated at this point.

Do not install from the Apple App Store, it does not provide the latest versions which work well with Catalina.
There are OneDrive versions that work, no workaround necessary. For details, click here:
My Fix for OneDrive on MacOs Catalina (10.15.x) - Microsoft Community
Thank you so much, this package works for me (Catelina 10.15.7) now and I can finally open the OneDrive app!!!! Just download and install this version, and I am so happy to see the notice message comes out at once!!
The latest "insider preview" versions of OneDrive for MacOS (starting with 23.081 and later, including 23.086) reportedly work with MacOS Catalina (10.15.x).
23.081 is available here: : https://oneclient.sfx.ms/Mac/Installers/23.081.0416.0001/universal/OneDrive.pkg
23.086 is available here:
https://oneclient.sfx.ms/Mac/Installers/23.086.0423.0001/universal/OneDrive.pkg

If you implemented fixes that preserved the previously working OneDrive versions (e.g. 23.002 or 23.054) by preventing MS from updating those to non-working versions, you may need to reverse those fixes first before installing the latest insider preview versions that now work with Catalina.
I can confirm that 23.081 works with MacOS Catalina (10.15.x).

Good luck!
