The local documents folder is always by default in the list of pinned folders, the ones I mentioned in the last reply. On the left side of the explorer.
In alternative, you can go to your users folder and create a shortcut in your desktop, or another location of your choice; create a shortcut for each subfolder of your choice in your desktop, or another location of your choice; or pin them in the list mentioned previously. Customize your machine to your personal preference.
I’m also speaking from personal experience, I work with Excel almost daily. Perhaps try to understand how you have your onedrive configured. Or if you don’t use it, just uninstall it and/or don’t use the autosave with cloud feature
I know it is always there by default, unless you install onedrive. Then that same button gets repurposed and it doesn’t point to your local documents directory anymore. You don’t get two documents shortcuts. like you, I also use my computer daily. that’s nothing special. most people do
It doesn’t point you to a different folder, it’s the same directory as the local Documents.
What I suggested is that you could create your own shortcuts that fit better your needs, I didn’t say it would create two documents shortcuts. I’m not sure what you are talking about.
And hey, I was trying to give you tips on how things actually work. If you want to be antagonistic, fine, I’ll shut up then 🤐
The only way I can get to my actual, local, documents folder is to go directly through my home folder.
and the only way to get to that is through c:/users, because microsoft keep doing their best to hide that a home folder exists.
I’m not speculating. this is what happens on the machine I use daily.
click my documents in the sidebar. then install onedrive and press the same button. it takes you somewhere else. where your files aren’t
