Does this mean I should be able to get at least partway back to where I was by repairing the database?
I've had a similar problem recently, my problem was caused by my Box software failing to run at start up, but as you can see your OneDrive location, I guess that OneDrive.exe must be running.

The real reason for this post is to say that the restore database function is very quick and worked ok for me. If you're going to move to local storage, the export / import function will do the trick, but export is not very quick, somewhere about 90 minutes for 9GB of cloud based storage. I didn't have to use restore, so I don't know how long it would take.

Best of Luck.
