Documents folder has disappeared

I tried this with several folders, but most of those were contained within another folder that is normally in Documents. So I tried with one I knew to be directly in Documents. It showed that one to be in "Documents", but it did not show where that Documents folder is.

I did another search for "Documents" and found 241 folders on my computer with that name. Almost all of them were empty; a small handful had some items in them, but only a few.

Thanks,

Thank you. I did that, and it said that the folder was in my Documents folder, which still showing up as empty in my home.

That reassured me that the folder was actually present somehow or other, and then it dawned on my to restart my computer. Once I did, the Documents folder had everything in it, though it was not on my favorites sidebar.

It finally dawned on me to restart my computer. Once I did, the Documents folder in my Home had everything in it, though it was not on my favorites sidebar. I have dragged it back on there.

I have also read that the disappearing Documents folder is a known issue for some people using Monterey. If this is true, is there any reason why Apple doesn't fix it?

Thanks, everyone, for your help!

There is a Documents folder in the home folder, but it is empty.

There is a Documents folder in iCloud Drive, but it is mostly empty.

Thanks,
