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

Anonymous

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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How did you change, or try to change, the default save location? Describe the symptoms which convinced you that it didn't work.

Remember that changing the default save location only apply to future files that you create. Any existing documents that are saved to OneDrive must be downloaded manually (for example in your web browser via https://onedrive.live.com).

Can you scroll down more instead of stopping at where the first screenshot ends and send another screenshot of what you are seeing?
