First of all, I have the same issue that was mentioned in this post: Unknown Error on Backup of Mac M1 Mini | Acronis Forum

Excluding the OneDrive folder is the only way to backup my Mac. But the product description says that this product is able to backup OneDrive... how???

Jurgen, OneDrive can be backed up provided that Files on Demand is not enabled as that uses reparse points to store information about files not stored locally and Acronis does not process such reparse points.

Caveat: I am a Windows user with no direct experience of using ATI on any Mac.

Ok clear, but in the real world... who is not using this feature to save disk space... I'm puzzled about that...

Ok, found the solution with thanks to the Acronis support. OneDrive should be excluded, if i want to backup OneDrive/Microsoft 365 files I have to use the webportal, and add the Microsoft365 services there.

Hi Jurgen,

if you have Acronis Cyber Protect Home Office\ Acronis True Image Advanced or Premium subscription, you can back up OneDrive and mailboxes for Microsoft 365 Consumer accounts to Acronis Cloud. Here is the feature description in case you consider obtaining a subscription https://kb.acronis.com/content/62069
