Finder sidebar not showing documents and other folders

My documents, downloads, desktop, and application folders are not appearing in the Finder sidebar. I can see them from the Go menu. I am running Big Sur.


I do NOT have the folders sync'd to iCloud. I rebooted and same thing.


Thoughts? How to redisplay the folders in Finder?

If no folders are visible under Favorites in the Finder Sidebar, hover the cursor to the right of the word Favorites until you see an arrow, click it.
