    Documents folder has been multiplying itself


    Just did a fresh Win 10 Pro 64 bit install.

    In File Explorer, I've directed Documents folder to server on network. As you can see, the Documents folder has been multiplying itself. This, from ordinary use. Under Properties each copy has the location tab showing the server. Have selected don't show hidden files. Closing and reopening File Explorer causes the duplicates to disappear.

    Your perspectives and observations will be most appreciated.
