  I am having trouble finding the WordPress folder on my pc to create a theme. Also, how do I connect my WordPress account to the WordPress folder in my pc? I have bluehost and have already installed WP in bluehost.

  You can connect the WP version on Bluehost with you WordPress.com account with Jetpack. You can also feed your posts from WordPress.com to the self-hosted site.

  You don’t need to create a theme, you can download one from the backend dashboard. Or just download from WordPress.org.

  You should also use the WordPress.org Forum for self-hosted sites.

  You can’t connect your computer’s filing system to WordPress.com
  and why would you want to? use the desktop app to manage your post and so on.

  Hope this will bring some form of clarity.

  Thank you for your response. Very helpful.
  The reason I wanted to connect WP files to computer was to create my own theme.
