You are almost certainly using the wrong Onedrive client (Business instead of Personal) or Windows Backup is overriding KFM.
Did %localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\onedrive.exe /reset complete successfully?
Maybe then is Offline KFM database is corrupted…
Last resort fix:
Close OneDrive
Delete folder: %localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\settings
Delete folder: %localappdata%\Microsoft\OneDrive\Business1 (if it exists)
Restart OneDrive
This forces Windows to rebuild the Known Folder Move configuration from scratch.
Hope this helps you, if not please just ignore it.
