I want to move the desktop custom program icons, documents and pictures out of Onedrive and back into the original location. I disabled Onedrive and thought they would automatically move back.

Also I click on search box to use winver and get no search box for windows, some bing thing comes up.

This is what I see when I go into properties in OneDrive. The location is shown but there is no option to change it.
