Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:

If relevant, provide additional screenshots/video:

Try content manager next to the search field is a gear symbol,
there you can setup and find location of the packages directory, which contains the community, official2020 and official2024 folder

When you have no user folder, you would have no desktop, no start menu, … nothing. Then you should repair your system.

More likely your user folder has a different name, look in C:\users folder what could be your user folder.

Or open a cmd box and type SET <enter>, the output should show you a line with HOMEDRIVE and HOMEPATH

EDIT: I see you are on XBOX, i don’t know how you can find it there, but as its windows based, the folder should be similar
