Windows 10: Dropped files into folder WpSystem and now I can't do anything with/to them.

Hello.A few months ago I accidentaly dropped a bunch of folders containing a ton of files into the WpSystem folder I was trying to move them to a safe place to back them up, and ended up completely losing access to the files.

Moving a file out of the WpSystem Folder

I recently moved a file into the WpSystems folder on my D drive. I did not mean to put the file in the WpSystems folder and I am not really sure why that folder isn't hidden. Regardless, I now get "The security ID structure is invalid" when trying to move
the file. I have tried copying it and sharing the file. I also do not have a restore point to go back to.

Thanks for any help.

 

WpSystem folder

I am planning on cloning my windows drive to a different hard drive. As i was clearing off the drive i am going to clone windows to, there was one folder which didn't move. It is the WpSystem folder. When i attempted to move it, it said "your organization
does not allow you to place this file here." How do i move this folder to a different hard drive? If it isn't possible to move, can windows work without it? Thanks.

 

Is deleting the WpSystem Folder Safe?
