Hi Lynn,
I notice the phrase "onedrive" in the data source path.
Could it be that the sync-options of your OneDrive don't really sync the
data, but just do a sync on-demand?
(in which case the shapefile-file (.shp, .shx etc) are just a
placeholder for the real files, that are somewhere up in the OneDrive-cloud.
In Windows explorer, you can tell this by an icon behind the filename:
- blue cloud icon: not locally available, just in the cloud
- green checkmark: available on your device ('offline")
Kind regards,
Gert-Jan

I recently purchased a new PC laptop and restored my QGIS projects and
files that I created with a previous version.
The new QGIS will not add the existing shapefiles and returns this
error message: Invalid Data Source:
C:\Users\lynna\OneDrive\Desktop\SPATIAL
BASEMAP\DAKOTA\DakotaCity\AppleValley\AppleValley.shp is not a valid
or recognized data source. All of the other shapefile components are
present.
Can anyone advise me what to do next?
Thank you.
