    File Folder Structures Duplicated


    Something odd occurs once in a while - after a reboot, I think. I will find a document folder with only the Folder structure duplicated. I recently discovered an additional folder named "Documents" my main Doc folder appears correct and it included all of the folders on my Hard Drive, but each of the subfolders was empty. Wanting to delete these files/folders, I did a right click on the root folder Documents and it returned a value of 0 Files and around 3000 folders. When I tried to delete these folders, I was told I could not do so because the files were not empty. The only way to dele

    Duplicate Public Folders

    Hi,

    To further identify the cause of this problem, can you provide us the following information?

    • What happens when you delete the duplicate folders?
    • Does it happen to all of your folders or only those with pictures?
    • Any steps you've tried to troubleshoot this issue?

    Regards.

    Windows 11 File Structure

    Microsoft pushed Windows 11 to my laptop, but my desktop machine is still on Windows 10. It would be nice to have both machines on the same OS. However...

    The file stucture in Windows 11 is really confusing. There is a desktop link on top and another desktop link inside it. Everything on the desktop is listed in the top desktop folder, and then in another desktop folder within the top desktop folder. Pictures and music and videos are listed in the top desktop structure and then again in a folder called Libraries. Desktop files are also repeated in the C drive folder>Users>MyName>desktop.

    Why is everything listed in multiple places in the file structure? Can I change that file structure? How? I'm afraid to just delete the folder called desktop inside the top desktop folder.

    File Folder Structures Duplicated

    Extracting Zip Files


    Are the step-by-step processes identical? That is, the folder extracted from and the folder extracted to belong to the same hierarchical file system structure. If they are, that suggests mildly the Cumulative Update left an electron or two out of place.
