Sorry to hear! It may be a reason to have your files within office 365 from now on though :)

I realize this is 4 years late but just in case someone else finds this post like I did:
I have 2 files I keep open all the time in excel on onedrive. After a reboot, I had to open both of them again. One opened and the other one failed to open. "Sorry......". When I went to get the path to the problem file I pasted it into my web browser and it asked for authentication and it worked.
I then went back and had to close Excel. Then re-open it and, because I had authenticated earlier in the browser, the file opened properly in the Excel client.
So the reason it wouldn't open was because of authentication timing out presumably. The error message was garbage. HTH anyone that comes across this issue.
