Syncing problem on Windows computer

In trying to clean up my computer (Windows 10 is crawling after a while up) I erased all the files in my pictures folder in Onedrive on my computer. The computer also erased all my files in my pictures folder on my computer.

I found a window where the computer syncs these files and unclicked this. I want to control what is in the cloud by placing files into my onedrive not let the computer do it.

I want to get my pictures folder online synced with my onedrive online. I repeat, I want to make my Onedrive on my computer become the same as my Onedrive online.

    Since your local Pictures folder is now empty but the cloud has files, you need to re-sync the cloud files to your local folder.
