This has worked for me to download a non-protected-link file:

  1. Go to your OneDrive
  2. Click on the share link and copy. It will look like: https://.../EvZJeK2tIMOs54OA?<other-stuff>
  3. Append download=1 after ? looking like https://.../EvZJeK2tIMOs54OA?download=1

Now you can use it with wget like:

wget https://.../EvZJeK2tIMOs54OA?download=1 -O <output-file-name\>.<extension\>

Note: The -O (capital O) is to define an output name otherwise it will have EvZJeK2tIMOs54OA?download=1 as the file name.
