In a terminal, ls -al, lists the complete folder contents of the home folder. Among the folders, there are Downloads and Documents. Both have the exact same access rights set. Now when I open the home folder in Finder. The Documents folder is missing. Why? ![Screenshot of the Home folder showing the Applications and Downloads folder but no Documents folder ][1] The output of ls -al for the home folder:
drwxr-xr-x@  3 christian  staff   96B Dec 19 14:17 Applications
drwx------@  4 christian  staff  128B Dec 21 09:57 Desktop
drwx------@  8 christian  staff  256B Dec 21 09:57 Documents
