Windows 10: Download Folder has other unrelated folders in it

Hi there! As you can see from the attached photo, my library got messed up somehow. Now the downloads folder has all the other folders in it, although they exit outside as well. And some programs like Utorrent find another default downloads folder : /// Is there a way to reset all this? Thanks in advance!

:)

 

Folder says access denied. Folder's security properties are also blocked from seeing or editing. Fix?

I've found others with the same problem, no solutions. This has happened on my second computer with a different folder, unrelated to steam.

 

COM Surrogate has stopped working Windows 10

That may be unrelated to the COM Surrogate issue.

Can you check this folder:

C:\Windows\LiveKernelReports

Are there .dmp files in that folder?

 

Hello and welcome to TenForums *Smile

If you have set up restore points for your PC you should be able to restore back to an earlier point in time before the folders were changed.
System Restore Windows 10

If you do not have restore points set (make sure you do in future) then you can try and manual reset the folders by right clicking on them, select Properties and go to the Location tab where you can Restore Default.

 

Thank you, turns out the downloads folder location was set to D:// where all the libraries are. Never did a restore point so will do it now thanks!
