Windows 10: Deleted users' system folders were changed to system files

I am using version 1903 build 18362.535. In version 1809, whenever I removed the system assigned "My..." user folders, Windows restored them occasionally. Now in 1903, I removed them and Windows replaced the folders with "system files". So now the My Documents .etc . . files were placed there by Windows. Their contents are identical. The others, Pictures, Documents, Contacts and Favorites I created using renamed copies of the same system files.

Rename Folder for assigned to system user

I would appreciate some assistance with the change requested below:

LAPTOP
is connected to a network

LAPTOP
has a sign on account is connected to LAPTOP

LAPTOP
The has the following 3 folders are attached to LAPTOP impacted by the change request:

- A1
- B2
- USERS

The contents of each folders are listed below:

A1 - Contains active files

B2 - "which has the same as the account " contains folder A1
ie (\\LAPTOP\B2)

USERS -Contains folder A1

I would like to know what I can do to delete the duplicate folders:.

Step 1:
Move the active files from Folder A1 to Folder B2 and delete folder A1.:
Step 2:
Move Folder B2 under the USERS Folder:

This would ensure that the active files are located in Folder B2 under the USERS folder and the folder
will the be associated with the Account Name.

I would appreciate your comments on if this is possible

Removing errant files in the "System Volume Information" folder under Windows 10.

Hi,

Thank you for posting your response.

I suggest you to first stop Volume Shadow Copy service and try to remove the files and check. Follow the steps provided below:

Step 1: Stop Volume Shadow Copy service

• 
  Press Windows logo Key + R key.
  
• 
  Type services.msc.
  
• 
  Search for Volume Shadow Copy service.
  
• 
  Right click on it and select
  Stop.
  

Now, take ownership of the System volume Information folder and then try to delete its contents.

Step 2: File permissions.

• Right click on System volume Information folder.
• Select Properties.
• Go to Security tab.
• Select the user name.
• Click on Edit button.
• Under permission to Authenticated user, check on full control.
• Click on Apply and OK button.
