In my case, disabling Windows Defender or firewall was useless, but this method really helped me. I hope that it will be useful to someone else.
How to Fix the Issue
Registry Editor
Сhange the registry where Documents (and Pictures etc.) are stored via “Registry Editor” app:

Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Shell Folders
Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders
In these 2 places anything that said OneDrive change it back to default, for example:
From:
- C:\Users\YourUsername\OneDrive\Documents
- C:\Users\YourUsername\OneDrive\Pictures
- C:\Users\YourUsername\OneDrive\Pictures\Camera Roll
- C:\Users\YourUsername\OneDrive\Pictures\Screenshots
- C:\Users\YourUsername\OneDrive\Videos
- C:\Users\YourUsername\OneDrive\Music
To:
- C:\Users\YourUsername\Documents
- C:\Users\YourUsername\Pictures
- C:\Users\YourUsername\Pictures\Camera Roll
- C:\Users\YourUsername\Pictures\Screenshots
- C:\Users\YourUsername\Videos
- C:\Users\YourUsername\Music
Copy Files
Then copy over the files manually from where the OneDrive moved it back to the default location.
Restart Your PC
Yeah, just restart your PC.
