How did my Save As page change? (Word, Windows 10)

Since I got my computer years ago, when I clicked "Save As", my Desktop and recently used folders were the list of options. The past 3 - 4 days, instead of the usual locations, it's One Drive.

I DID NOT change things so how did this happen and how can I change it back. It is a true pain in my butt to have to click a bunch of stuff just to get to my Desktop.!

Every time Windows updates, something I didn't want to happen, happens. The ONLY other time this happened was back when Microsoft sabotages Windows XP. Seriously wrong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    That is all you can do: continue the discussion until your issue has been resolved.

    My point was that with many posts, the thread becomes long and it will be more difficult to spot suggestions that have already been made. This may result in some repetition of previous replies. Not your fault, obviously.

    Is there something I'm supposed to do about the amount of pages in my thread? I thought I could reply and receive replies until the issue has been resolved!

    This thread is now five pages long, and it is getting difficult to keep track of all replies and what has been said and not said. I am running out of ideas, I'm afraid.

    If you read the different messages, you'd see I went to the link you sent and began to follow the directions, but got to a point that what I was told I'd see was not there. Now what do I do?

    The Unlink this PC option seems promising. This is mentioned in the article to which I posted a link in a previous reply:
