Right click and Unpin what you wish from Quick Access:
Choose folders in One Drive Settings:
Alternatively, uninstall OneDrive, (not recommended):

Hi Edwin
Thanks for getting back so quickly. I have unpinned all from quick access and unlinked one drive from my PC. When I move a file from my desktop to my documents, instead of going "This PC/documents", it goes to another folder in "ThisPC/Local user/d_emb/documents". (d_emb is part of my username for many sites but I dont recall setting up this folder and I never encountered the problem before upgrading to Creator). Incidentally, the upgrade failed and disrupted the systems adminstrator access. I had to pay someone to do clean reinstall and reload my programmes and files. Could that have produced the extra folders? I have attached two further screenshots. Thank you

Documents folder has moved
Hi
I posed a question re one drive and documents folder. Edwin responded and I was able to resolve the issue caused by one drive. I replied to Edwin, thanking him and raising again the issue of the moving documents folder. I think that I have marked his response as solved when I was actually asking him a supplementary question which may not have been seen by anybody including Edwin so here it is again.
When I move a file from my desktop to my documents by clicking on the documents icon in the start menu sidebar, instead of going to "This PC/documents", it goes to another folder in "ThisPC/Local user/d_emb/documents". (d_emb is part of my username for many sites but I dont recall setting up this folder and I never encountered the problem before upgrading to Creator). Do I need this account? Incidentally, the upgrade failed and disrupted the systems adminstrator access. I had to pay someone to do a clean reinstall and reload my programmes and files. Could that have produced the extra folders? I have attached two further screenshots. Thank you
