    Hello,

    Same problem. So I reinstalled v23.054.0313.

    Then, after installation, I immediately stopped the processes :

    $ launchctl remove com.microsoft.OneDriveStandaloneUpdater
    
    
    
    $ sudo launchctl remove com.microsoft.OneDriveStandaloneUpdaterDaemon
    
    
    
    $ sudo launchctl remove com.microsoft.OneDriveUpdaterDaemon
    

    And deleted the corresponding .plist :

    $ sudo rm /Library/LaunchAgents/com.microsoft.OneDriveStandaloneUpdater.plist
    
    
    
    $ sudo rm /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.microsoft.OneDriveStandaloneUpdaterDaemon.plist
    
    
    
    $ sudo rm /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.microsoft.OneDriveUpdaterDaemon.plist
    

    Seems to work.

    Best regards

    MM,

    Thank you very much! You saved my day!

    My system is 10.15.7 Catalina. I can confirm it worked.

    Did you instantly after installing one drive kill the process? we had to try several times to get the timing right

    Tried this and didn't help.
    Any other solutions to this?

    Sitting now with 4 machines that cannot run Onedrive anymore.

    Bit of a nightmare for us right now!

    And no Microsoft, we cannot just purchase new machines because of an application update.
    We should be able to use an older version should we choose to!
