permissions issue with mac monterey update

I just updated my macbook air to Monterey 12.2.1 and now I am receiving the error "The operation can’t be completed because you don’t have permission to access some of the items" when trying to move or attach files within Onedrive. I am the administrator and had no issues prior to installing this update.


I did check to ensure I have both read/write permissions. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.


Thank you.

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.2

Thank you for your response. Full access is enabled for OneDrive, but I'm still receiving error messages. Tried to open one of my files and received this message - The file “2020 H4H In-Kind Sponsor Letter - FINAL.pdf” couldn’t be opened because you don’t have permission to view it.

I right clicked the file name, selected Get Info and confirmed I do have read/write access.


Any idea what happened and is it possible to revert back to my settings prior to this update?
