if you can happen to get an answer what caused it, please let us know. I would be interested in hearing why this would be happening.

Thank you @Marcus Vinicus. That was helpful feedback, but I don't think it solves my issue. I did find the OneDrive Account options you referred to. In the "choose folders" window, I do not see an option to unshare the "recycle bin." The only folders available to check or uncheck are the active folders in SharePoint (i.e., I only see checkboxes for the undeleted folders in SharePoint).Hi @mridzon
In my previous life before I retired, I was an IT Manager who used to admin Microsoft 365 SharePoint daily.
You could try this if what you're referring to is when using OneDrive Business in Windows on your PC. There are two versions of OneDrive, one is Personal (the standard one built into Windows), the other is OneDrive Business which is linked to a Work Account as in Microsoft 365 Business or Enterprise.
Try the steps on this Microsoft page below and find the section named Change Sync Settings and follow the steps 1-4 outlined. In Windows 11 some of the dialogue boxes will look slightly different to those in the MS screenshots.
Remember this is for OneDrive Business not OneDrive Personal.
I've tested the instructions on my PC, and it is possible to unlink everything or select individual folders.
In case any of this doesn't solve your issue, as previously suggested by @antspants you are best to contact your companies IT department.

Quick update. I talked to IT. They spent a little time looking at it, but did not come up with an answer. So they said to just leave it as is. Oh well!
I'm in IT as well and honestly wasn't sure how to go about fixing that either, but then again I have little to no experience with sharepoint. I heard online of people experiencing this before but never came across an answer. Hence my curiosity. Luckily never had it happen here.
