The OneDrive may not actually be installed, but you failed to uninstall it correctly (or the uninstaller is garbage). You should have used Microsoft's uninstaller to remove it.


Etrecheck is showing that the launch daemon plist for the autoupdate function is still installed. It is just a text file that Etrecheck is reading and showing what the launchd plist is trying to launch (the executable), but likely failing. That would cause problems that you may or may not notice.

FWIW, You should uninstall AVG and BitDefender. Antivirus programs are unnecessary, slow performance and are known to cause problems. You might want to update EtreCheck. The current version is 6.1.9 and enable Full Disk Access.
