I booted up today and found my OneDrive-Personal folders are no longer listed under Home. I see it listed further below where This PC and Network are. Plus, the name changed from Charmaine - Personal to OneDrive - Personal is a new location. How do I move these folders back to under Home? I know I can pin to quick start but that's not how it was setup yesterday.

UPDATE: I went into File Options and changed View from Home to OneDrive - Personal. Close to how it was before.

Also here is an example of the File Explorer Title Bar color. This morning with the first screenshot it is grey, this afternoon with the last screenshot it is pink (the selected accent color last Nov is not consistent on the title bar, appears randomly, different days and times, accent color is only consistent on the taskbar, start menu, browser paint and notepad.) I have no idea why the accent color isn't working properly. After I shutdown it will be grey at reboot and magically at some point in the day be pink. Today was afternoon, yesterday was evening, day before that not at all.

Changed View - Open Explorer to OneDrive-Personal

Close to previous view (also the File Explorer Title Bar is magically the accent color selected last November - randomly appears)

Were you having trouble using Office without being signed in yesterday, or was that someone else?

Hi,
Pin fell off oops :cool:
The OneDrive folder was right under Home with no pins on folders. If I open file explorer to Home and select pin to quick access the folders will show duplicated in 2 areas - under Home and under Quick Access. I don't need to see it twice. I now set open file explorer to open with Onedrive - Personal and found it views close to what it was yesterday.

Not me. I login with my MS account always as I use OneDrive across my devices and save to my OneDrive storage. I only noticed the File Explorer folder view different today with the OneDrive folder no longer directly under Home after I ran Windows Update yesterday.

    I don't really know much about my specs.
Is there no way to drop and drag the OneDrive folder icon into the Home icon? Just curious.
