Multiple authentification required to open Office document from OneDrive.
I'm experiencing the same thing. I start my sessions by opening the OneDrive app, authenticate with email+password, find the document I want to work with and when I click the document, the application (e.g. Word or Excel) opens the attached pop-up and asks for email address, again... and when I open another file in a different application I get prompted again... Which of course is mindnumbingly tedious.
So the workaround I use is to simply click the cancel button on this pop-up. Then the application opens but the document doesn't. Then I hop back into the OneDrive app and click the same document again and now it opens. After that the OneDrive connection seems to work smoothly...
But how I wish I could get rid of that annoying pop-up...
