Saving Word documents to personal drive and not OneDrive

Anyone else experiencing sudden change in saving a document in Word for Mac (Microsoft 365)? The only choice of saving a document is to OneDrive and not to a file on my MacBook Pro. I then have to select the document in OneDrive and move it to the file I want it saved in. This is an extra step and time suck. I have restarted the MacBook Pro and the problem continues. Help. :)

There’s an On My Mac button on the left side of the Save dialog box (you may need to click the expansion arrow near the file name field). Click that and you’ll save locally (and it should remember that choice).
