Minor version limit exceeded
DanielClaassen - Switch to Classic OneDrive and then select the settings cog and select Show ribbon, now you can select the Documents tab and then select Library Settings from the Ribbon. You can select versioning and switch it back to Create major versions. The default number of versions is 500.
I hope this answered your question. - Greg
Sorry, so use to ask questions for clients...this is actually my ODFB.
I can't recall changing the settings. Does it make a difference that the folder where the docs exist in is shared with another user...
So in SharePoint, I will go to Library settings -> versioning.
Dont find a library settings for ODFB...Where do i see what the settings is?

Gregory Frick Brilliant, Thanks.
Minor and Major were enabled but at least there I can publish a major version.
Really strange that you cant publish a major version in the modern experience.

It is possible to publish minor version in OneDrive. You need to do the following:
1 - Go to OneDrive Gear Icon and tap «settings»
Then scroll down until «return to old setting»
3 - From the Site Setting choose - «site and library»
4- Choose document
5 - Go to versioning settings
6 - From the versioning settings you can decide what you want. Note: Versions in OneDrive as in SharePoint can be set from a minimum of 100 to a max of 50000
Consider the below article about versioning in SharePoint
Enable and configure versioning for a list or library - SharePoint (microsoft.com)
The difference is that in OneDrive the steps are different, but at the end of the day you will land at the same versioning settings page.
Ok...So i think it is safe to assume that there is no way to publish a major version on one drive for business?
So the only way would be to save with a new name...
