    Hello Joshua,

    I installed Onedrive with Homebrew, not with the Microsoft installer.

    Which, I guess, prevents it to be automatically launched.

    The operations I suggested should be done before launching the installed app.

    Best regards

    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

    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
