I'm missing the Photos section from the OneDrive desktop app 19.23.19.0. The left side of the app contains the following just under my name:

In contrast, the OneDrive web site has the above plus the Photos section:

Can anyone explain the discrepancy?

Photos app shows my local photos only. When I click on "OneDrive Personal" and try to "Sign in", I get this message box:

I'm pretty sure that's how I ended up downloading the OneDrive desktop app a few weeks ago. Still a dead end. BTW, today when I click the "Browse" button, this is what comes up:

The problem was I had uninstalled the OneDrive Sync app. Turns out you need it for Photos to be able to view OneDrive contents.
