Hi Guys

So the other day I was trying to change my "downloads"' folder location to my second HDD, D: drive.
In doing so it changed around some things in my file explorer and now my folders are all mixed up and I cant change them. The side

Currently
The side bar hierarchy looks like this (the desktop is highest? and everything is kept under it (however these do not all show on my actual desktop though))
>Quick access
>Desktop
>onedrive
>"PCUsername"
>This PC
>Documents
>Downloads
>Pictures
>C Drive
>D Drive
>Libraries
>network
>Control Panel
>Recycling bin
The main problem is the OneDrive folder location.

This is what I am aiming for (as in file structure not the weird colours, just the only image I could find):
2OJGi8l

or:
>quick access
>OneDrive
>Dropbox
>Computer
>Documents
>Downloads
>Pictures
>C Drive
>D Drive
>Network

In the process it has changed my Onedrive folder loaction to ONLY be on my PC C drive so it will not sync with the online Onedrive

Also this changed on both my laptop and Desktop PC and windows 10 syncs the settings.

Does anyone know how to change these file systems?
Can you restore File Explore defaults?

Thanks

Solution
I found a basic solution:

open windows explorer
>File
> change folder and search Options
>View and scroll down
>Navigation pane
>untick all 3 boxes here

Also within these options you can disable the annoying Quick access recent folder and frequent folders
