    start up screen

    I was trying to make the letters larger. I tried a system restore but got an error ox80070091. I can't send a photo but the pictures look like thumb tiles and my other icons are mixed in with them.

    Dan22,

    Welcome to the forum!!

    Have you tried deleting the folder in Safe Mode:

    To start Windows in Safe Mode:
    Select the Start button, then select: Settings
    Select: Update & security > Recovery
    Under Advanced startup select: Restart now
    After your PC restarts to the Choose an option screen, select Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup Settings > Restart
    After your PC restarts, select the Safe Mode startup setting by pressing its number: 4

    Also, try renaming the folder.

    If the rename is successful, delete the folder.

    You may also try getting creative, and, when renaming, add an exclamation mark to the rename. ( !whateverfolder )
