At the risk of sounding like a total noob I'm asking If anyone can help me locate the "Desktop" folder on Windows 11. I am trying to make a backup of all the user data from an SSD (mounted externally) that has Windows 11 installed. I was able to do this before up to Windows 10 by navigating to the User folder --> Username and there I would see the individual folders, Documents, Downloads etc. Attached is a screenshot of the folders I do see within the Users / Username folder. Any help locating the desktop folder will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance to the community.
Where is the "Desktop" folder located in Windows 11?

by japlyticIn a Beelink GTR mini PC, mine has an Intel AX200NGW WLAN module.
Tried (only with keyboard/mouse connected):- BIOS + database update
- Using latest Windows 11 image built with official image creation tool
- Previous setup version for Windows 11 installer
- Replacing SSD without a slow block (the previous SSD had a slow block with access time > 500 mS)
- TPM reset (worked to the point where DRIVER_PNP_WATCHDOG error message is displayed briefly after the point of stalling)
- Disabling power to WLAN and LAN modules in BIOS (Advanced > AMD PBS > PCI Express Configuration)
