    The only way I can get to my actual, local, documents folder is to go directly through my home folder.

    and the only way to get to that is through c:/users, because microsoft keep doing their best to hide that a home folder exists.

    I’m not speculating. this is what happens on the machine I use daily.

    click my documents in the sidebar. then install onedrive and press the same button. it takes you somewhere else. where your files aren’t

      The local documents folder is always by default in the list of pinned folders, the ones I mentioned in the last reply. On the left side of the explorer.

      In alternative, you can go to your users folder and create a shortcut in your desktop, or another location of your choice; create a shortcut for each subfolder of your choice in your desktop, or another location of your choice; or pin them in the list mentioned previously. Customize your machine to your personal preference.

      I’m also speaking from personal experience, I work with Excel almost daily. Perhaps try to understand how you have your onedrive configured. Or if you don’t use it, just uninstall it and/or don’t use the autosave with cloud feature
