Windows 10: Opening a folder/path automatically goes into "this pc"

Before yesterday, clicking on a file such as in like quick access, would just click on that file and not anything else. But now for whatever reason everytime I click on a file, such as pictures, it would automatically go straight into the "this Pc" and try finding it there, so if I need to look for something quick it really makes it time consuming since it shows all my files in that path.

I can't share videos here for some reason so had to share it in the google drive.

Documents/Pictures folders under 'This PC' refer to onedrive - not the local folders

Since the only folder that has incorrect file path is the Documents folder under This PC, we would suggest you do the same steps provided above. However, do it in your Documents folder under This PC. To do so, kindly follow the steps below:

• Open File Explorer
• Click This PC
• Right-click on Documents
• Click Properties
• Click Location
• Click Restore Default
• Click Apply
• Click OK

Also, we would like to inform you that "winhelponline.com" is not associated with Microsoft.

Let us know how it goes.
