[QUOTE="ferrarr, post: 1729509, member: 376394"] Well,this is what I just did. I went and unchecked Desktop & Documents from the iCloud Drive options in System Preferences. A window came up and said those folder will now only be on the Cloud in iCloud Drive. This seems like the new status quo. I moved the files from iCloud Drive > Desktop to my newly created Desktop folder. I was asked if I wanted to remove the files, so I accepted and they moved, exactly the same as if they were on the same drive. Like if you move a file between two folders. The files were no longer in iCloud Drive, only on my Desktop. So then I deleted the Desktop Folder from my iCloud Drive folder, and 10 seconds later it was recreated. Hmmm. [/QUOTE]
