You will likely receive this error if you open a lot of SharePoint documents in a short space of time.

An alternative to avoid this error is to create a shortcut to the SharePoint folder in your OneDrive and sync your OneDrive to your local PC. Please raise a support ticket if that is something you would like to do.
