Hi all,

My dad has an iMac running 12.3. Somehow, his “default” save location is his iCloud Drive. I created a folder on the desktop, and when I checked the location afterwards, sure enough, it showed the folder was created on iCloud in a folder called “Desktop”, along with all the other icons on his desktop.

His entire desktop was an iCloud folder. How do we go about changing the desktop back to the Hard drive?
Also, once that’s corrected, am I right in assuming we can just drag and drop the iCloud files to the Hard drive?

Thanks
