Windows 10: How to get my displayed Desktop to NOT be the OneDrive Desktop Folder

With the new storage restrictions coming up in February 2024, I'm removing everything from OneDrive; however, my displayed desktop is in my OneDrive folder. I've uninstalled OneDrive from my computer, but it's still showing that one, and not the Desktop folder under C:\users\%userprofile%\Desktop - how do I fix this?

onedrive/win 10 how to display user desktop from user folder and not desktop in onedrive folder

Making PC desktop path native to onedrive folder?

Hi, I am using Microsoft office 365 as part of my institution package. Is it possible for the PC desktop files to natively display a folder from the onedrive? I want to make all common C: locations to onedrive locations. So if anything happens, I always have everything sync online?

Previously I synced the locations so from "C:\user\username" to other places on the PC. Previously, I use syncback to syncfolders to Onedrive and other HD's. However, this step is just redundant. When you sync onedrive to the PC, you still need to specify a place on the PC. So from "C:\user\username\ onedrive". Technically, Onedrive still uses a physical place on the PC to store files.
So what I did is that I specify which part of the onedrive to replace "My Documents", "My Pictures", "Downloads" folder in the quick access. I am having a problem specifying or replacing the Desktop folder. Is it possible to change my native desktop to display directly the desktop on the onedrive online? The only problem I see is application shortcuts. You cannot specify a shortcut to appear on the onedrive folder. Aside from that, I get full autosave function of MS files which is connected to Onedrive. If it is not possible to replace the desktop file, I will still use the same solution with syncback.




Thanks for the suggestions.
