OneDrive has stolen my documents

I take my laptop to work in places where is not internet. I learned this the hard way a year ago when my presentation was saved in the OneDrive cloud. So, I turned off OneDrive. I went through many, many documents to save them to my laptop.

A few weeks ago, I couldn't find a doc. I searched for it and found it in the User folder with OneDrive in the folder info. I tapped on it and OneDrive turned itself on and synced with my other computer which i did not want at all.

I turned off OneDrive. Now there are many Word docs, Excel docs, and PowerPoints are saved in the OneDrive folder and I can't open them.

I need someone to get ALL my files out of OneDrive where I can access them all.
