Penrynian I was having the same issue. In Visio, I went to File -> accounts and "Sign out" of the account linked to the oneDrive that had the syncing problem. Then I get a button to "Connect" the account. After clicking that and logging back in, the problem went away.

- PenrynianMar 25, 2021Brass ContributorDuring a few hours on Teams with a MS escalation engineer, we completely removed all traces of Office products using a script known as OffScrub. When both my machines were completely denuded of Office products, we reinstalled all of them from scratch, in 64-bit flavour.
After all of this, the problem with upload errors persisted, and when I shared a Visio file to the MS eng's email he saw the same error when he opened it on his machine.
Problem reproduced, witnessed, and fully documented.
After a few days, I heard that when the next O365 build is issued, within the first 1-2 weeks of April, this should be fixed.
Open any O365 app, click File/Account and look for "About Word/Excel/...."
Current build version is 2102.
Upcoming build 2103 has the fix.
