Quicktime not accessible after Monterey installed
Just loaded Monterey, tried to open Quicktime and it brings me to an iCloud folder.
Is there any way to get it back?

Hey there, and welcome to Apple Support Communities NVP,
From our understanding, you have recently upgraded to Monterey and Quicktime is no longer working. We can certainly understand your concern and can help provide some insight.
When you launch QuickTime, it's expected to see a window appear. It may show iCloud or other online account folders, but you can change that to include your local folders, such as Desktop, Downloads, or Documents, by selecting them on the side bar. What you're seeing is QuickTime bringing up a window to open a file. If you don't have a file to open and would rather begin recording something new, just click File and select the appropriate action. Learn more about QuickTime actions in the QuickTime Player User Guide here.
Let us know if that helps and kindest regards!
