  2. Win 11 - No "direct" way to show documents that are ONLY ON MY HARD DRIVE?????

    My Win 10 computer died and so I purchased a new Dell with Win 11 installed.

    The first thing I'm noticing - having installed exactly one program (Quicken) on the computer - is that Win 11 seems to absolutely INSIST that I use OneDrive, for all my documents, even if I don't want to. I created a Quicken folder on my hard drive and copied my date there. While attempting to correct this I noticed another difference in Win 10 vs. Win 11 behavior that I find vexing.

    In Win 10 clicking on File Explorer > This PC > Documents I saw a list of folders and files that lived exclusively on my PC. In Win 11 clicking File Explorer > This PC > Documents brings up folders and files that live on OneDrive and it DOESN'T show the the Quicken folder I created on my PC.

    Is there any way of adjusting things to get File Explorer operating as it did on the Win 10 computer? I can get to that Quicken folder on my hard drive by going through OS (CUnable to copy files or open documents from win 10 to win 11 :) > Users > etc. but I have to believe I'm missing something here.

    How to create shortcut to document on Win 10

    There is a particular document file that I use almost daily. I have been unable to create a shortcut to this file on either my Win 10 Start Menu or my Task Bar. I would appreciate suggestions to create quick access to this document file, but not on my
    Desktop.
