    Open your OneDrive settings and look at the autosave tab.

    Hi,

    From Onedrive go to settings-->account then click on the unlink tab.

    After that configure your account again, when the wizard ask you for the location select the C:\Users\jjcla\Documents path then click ok next choose this location.

    Hope it helps

    Let me clarify issue. Under This PC, my Documents folder is linked to OneDrive. I would like my Documents folder in the This PC tree to have the path C:\Users\jjcla\Documents. I have a Document folder in C:\Users\jjcla\Documents currently.

    My issue is how to I change the path of my Documents under T****his PC from C:\Users\jjcla\OneDrive\Document to 

    C:\Users\jjcla\Documents. Can I delete the Documents folder which will delete it from OneDrive? If so, how do I add back the Documents folder from C:\Users\jjcla\Documents to the This PC tree?
