That is unrelated. It shows an “Open …” dialog box, which defaults to the last open/save location, and initially to iCloud. As you may not have saved any QuickTime files in iCloud, that folder is empty. You can navigate to a folder on your Mac to open a file from there, or Cancel to do an action from the menu bar instead.
