Windows 10: Why my document and desktop are appearing in OneDrive

When I download apps which default save location is c:\user\document,and it will be redirected to OneDrive\document,but those app can't run properly because they can't read this location, however because I can't open those apps, I can't change their default location.So I uninstalled OneDrive, but the c:\user\onedrive steal exists and the app still can't work

:)

 

OneDrive moved my Desktop into a OneDrive folder and removed Google Drive

To revert the shell folder locations to default, open OneDrive and do the following:

Important: Before proceeding, copy the files in those special folders to another folder or external drive. Please don’t copy them anywhere under Desktop/Documents/Pictures. This is because disabling OneDrive backup for a folder would erase the local copies of the files. Copying them to a different location beforehand will ensure that you don’t need to download them again from the OneDrive cloud.

1. Right-click the OneDrive icon in the Notification area and click Settings.
   
2. Select the Backup tab, and click Manage Backup
   
3. In the Manage folder backup dialog, click on the Stop backup link under the special folder (Desktop, Documents, or Pictures)
   
4. Click Stop backup in the confirmation dialog that appears.
   
5. Repeat the step for each shell folder you want to revert to the original location.

documents and desktop folders mixed up

• Doube-check OneDrive settings to make susre it isn't set to "backup" Desktop.
• Copy & psate each of the following into the Explorer Address bar and see what folder opens:
  • shell:ThisPCDesktopFolder
  • shellersonal
  • shell:Local Documents
  • shell:::{450D8FBA-AD25-11D0-98A8-0800361B1103}

• The first one should open your Desktop folder
• The next two should open This PC > Documents ( which should be displaying the content of ...\OneDrive\Documents )
• The last one should also show the contents of ...\OneDrive\Documents, but with the full path in the Address bar.

 

OneDrive app opening Documents folder

Long story short... When I click on my OneDrive app, it opens my Documents folder (folder in 'This PC').

This evening I changed the location of my Documents folder to within OneDrive, and then tried to return it which somehow ended up with 'OneDrive' replacing 'Documents' in the 'This PC' list... I used a .bat file to restore 'Documents to the correct place here, but there still appears to be an issue with Onedrive.

Does anyone have any ideas what I can do to fix this?

Thank you!
