Why am I not able to find my recently created folders in OneDrive or my file Explorer?

Sean_P_s3016183 Hi Sean, you definitely need to find a video or documents that explain to you the different symbols used by OneDrive to indicate whether files are visible, local, or "required to be local" (ie "Always keep on this device" See for example: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/what-do-the-onedrive-icons-mean-11143026-8000-44f8-aaa9-67c985aa49b3
It sounds like there is some problem with the way that your OneDrive client is running on your computer. You should run through the troubleshooting steps set out here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/fix-onedrive-sync-problems-0899b115-05f7-45ec-95b2-e4cc8c4670b2 which may involve shutting it down and re-setting it.
Sean_P_s3016183 This happens all the time. Microsoft is not accountable to anyone as a monopoly. It stinks. I hate OneDrive. It makes my job much, much more frustrating than necessary.
