getting rid of one drive

Your problems probably lies in the method you used to deal with onedrive. Could you please list the steps on how you attempted to accomplish this. For everything to work out as expected you should have used this tutorial. Turn On or Off OneDrive Folder Backup Syncing Across Windows 11 Devices Tutorial

Right click on your pictures folder, select properties, location tab. What does it show as the location of that folder?

If I understand correctly you do have your photos backup. The problem is when you try saving new photos they are saving in different locations. If so you can create a new folder for your photos and name it whatever you want. Then all you have to do is have whatever program your using to save your photos with use that folder as the default save location.

Pease do what I asked in post #2. Right click on your pictures folder, select properties, location tab. What does it show as the location of that folder?

When you click on save as, look at the lefthand side of the box. You have to select the folder you wnt to use. I'll post a screenshot if you want.

I drew a circle around the area to choose the save location.
