OneDrive has corrupted my folder locations

I have un-linked OneDrive from my computer. If I go to explorer and click 'This PC' in the left pane, it shows 6 folders on the right: Desktop, Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures, and Videos. If I right click on Downloads and hit properties, the Location tab shows me: C:\Users\micha\Downloads. When I do this with Documents, the location tab isn't even there! However the General tab does say that the location is: C:\Users\micha\OneDrive. If I try to open this folder, I get an error saying location not available. I can still access my real documents folder using the Libraries option in the left pane, which links to my real documents folder which is at C:\Users\micha\Documents.

Any advice?

Hi Micha , AFAIK OneDrive adds itself to each of your Standard Libraries , (and being M$ , it likes to be the Default Save Option too, for each library , which i have to change ) so when you look at your Library you also see what is on OneDrive.

I have not seen this myself but I think it should be fairly easy by going to your default library location in file Explorer , going to Properties>Location and clicking on Restore Default. I keep my Libraries on E:\ or F:\ including the Desktop, here is my Picture Library on F:\ with the Restore Button.
