Windows Documents folder has incorrect file path name

Windows 11 version 23H2

Please can somebody explain why my documents folder filepath shows
C:\Users\username\OneDrive\onenote
Instead of
C:\Users\username\OneDrive\Documents
I have looked in the onedrive folder & the documents folder is just named Documents. All is working ok but don’t understand why the file path name is different
How can I change this to show (C:\Users\username\OneDrive\Documents)
Any help would be gratefully accepted this is really annoying me as I have some .cmd files to automatically back up to external drives and the coded file path looks out of place.

I have another account on the same PC and it just shows
C:\Users\differentusername\OneDrive\Documents
Which is how it should be
Many thanks

Hi, Bagsy, welcome to the Elevenforums

It’s interesting, I’d like to see someone explain why this has happened.
As for moving the location

First thing I would do is right click on the Documents folder that has the incorrect path
Select properties
Choose Restore Default
See what it changes to?



But it should change to your specific user account. Ex. C:\users\yourusername\documents

If that doesn't work, you can manually move it.

Right click on the Documents folder that has the incorrect path
Select properties



Select the Location tab and click Move to change the system default save location. C:\users\yourusername\documents or a new location



click apply.



See how that goes.

Also (I couldn’t find it earlier)

Glad you fixed it, good job

Bear in mind that there are 2 documents folders, one of them being under your personal folders view like this:



These are 2 different locations!
