OneDrive updates itself using a scheduled task that is configured to run once a day. The task looks like it just runs the updater EXE with no parameters, so you should be able to run this on your machine to trigger the update:

Edit: Although, now that I see your post is 5 days old, I assume that your client has long since updated automatically. Sorry for being late to the party.

I tried running that exe from a command prompt. It just returned to the command prompt and didn't do anything. I rebooted to see if that would help and nope.
Should I run it from an elevated prompt?
the scheduled task just shows running for awhile then nothing :(

No, it shouldn't be necessary to run it elevated. If it didn't update your client, it may be that it doesn't see a newer version available. Perhaps that computer isn't configured for Insider/Targeted Release channel?
