onedrive couldn't communicate with helper application

It seems to be more frequently I can't communicate with OneDrive from my Mac. It comes up with an error saying it can't communicate with the helper application. Has anyone found a permanent fix for this? It seems the advice is to restart the Mac but that is a pain, or reinstall Onedrive which didn't help. I see the same issue for GoogleDrive, Drop box, and others so I assume this is a Mac issue.

Any Answers?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.3

Taking 45 seconds or so to restart your Mac is a pain? Uninstalling an irksome app and reinstalling it is an oft used remedy.

OneDrive being a Microsoft product, you might want to consider asking in a Microsoft community.
