I don't want anything to do with the Cloud!

If you only viewed the One Drive folder in File Explorer, you may have only seen files that are residing on your hard drive. To access the One Drive cloud folder, you need to log in at "onedrive.com" and click on "my files". The only files you will see in the File Explorer folder are those that are being synced from the cloud folder.
