syncing with iCloud

I synced my Desktop and Documents to iCloud. How do I get them back on my Mac as well (i.e., both on Mac and in iCloud.)

Mac mini 2018 or later

Open system preferences > iCloud and uncheck the box of iCloud Drive a pop up window appears , showing to keep a copy of documents , and remove from the Mac .

( a ) if you had clicked on keep a copy , they will be archived in home folder that can be viewed by clicking on finder in the dock , take cursor on top menu bar > Go > Home > your user name > iCloud Drive ( Archive ) .

Again double click on empty box of iCloud Drive , a small circle will rotate setting up the box gets checked .
