Nothing showing in Finder Documents

[Sandman6]

I recently installed Ventura 13.0 and had to go and reset the sidebar settings in Finder.

Now when I click on Documents, it doesn't open up to show anything. The folders are still there - when I do a search it gives the correct location in Docs and I can click on a file and it'll open up. Just not from Finder...

What have I missed here?

Drag "Documents" off the sidebar to delete it. Then navigate to Macintosh HD > Users > [your home folder name] > Documents and drag that Documents folder to the sidebar to see if that fixes it.

Nothing is showing in that folder either

Well that doesn't make any sense. Have you tried restarting your Mac?

Perhaps it has something to do with iCloud Drive? See link below:

I reckon it's iCloud Drive related. I'll make a backup and switch it off when its finished downloading
