Windows 10: I am a Windows 11 user--photos which are accessible through one drive cannot be opened.

I am a Windows 11 user--suddenly my computers photos which are accessible through one drive cannot be opened. I used to be able to access them, but now an error pops up that says : "windows cannot find 'C users/ TEMP/OneDrive/Desktop/Evan Art for Sell/ artwork for print/ .... jpg. Make sure you typed the name correctly, then try again." We are never typing a name to open these photos, we are simply double-clicking the icon. We have tried for hours to get help on Windows Help online and to get customer service on the phone but cannot access any help. Please can someone direct us to where we can

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
