    Hi,

    I have the same problem.

    Version 23.054.0313 is working fine but the versions thereafter (23.061.0319 and 23.066.0326) not.

    When will this be fixed?

    Many thanks and best regards,

    Roland

    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

    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!

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