It usually happens when one is logged in Windows with different Microsoft account and in OneDrive with another Microsoft Account.
Try to use same Microsoft account in Windows login, Microsoft Office and One Drive.
It solved the issue at our end.

ArchnaSingh I am using the feature of having syncing OneDrive files from two different microsoft office accounts. (OneDrive properties, Settings, Accounts, Add Account, Add second account) so switching accounts won't work in my situation.

I'd love to solve this problem. I too experience this error when editing a SharePoint file that is also stored through the One Drive utility
