    ## Fix OneDrive for Mac CPU usage
    ##
    ## Seems this is still a problem 5 years later after I created this little gist.
    ## I have long since stopped using OneDrive (luckily), but according to
    ## comments below, I have added the new path for OfficeFileCache for macOS
    ## Mojave (10.14) and Catalina (10.15).

    ## Run this on macOS Mojave (10.14) and Catalina (10.15)
    find ~/Library/Containers/ -type d -name OfficeFileCache -exec rm -r {} +

    ## Run this if you're on pre-Mojave (< 10.14)
    find ~/Library/Group\ Containers/ -type d -name OfficeFileCache -exec rm -r {} +
