Mysterious folders and NETWORK SERVICE ownership?

Do you delete everything that looks mysterious to you? Better to do research on the internet so you can understand what things are before messing up your computer. For example, the Network Service is an important part of the Windows operating system.

 

Right click on them and select Properties. Anything show in there that helps locate them?

 

Shows Description Documents2 (\\DESKTOP-R******)

Location \\DESKTOP-R******

size 0 bytes

 

I clean installed Build 10582 for a different reason and have the same mysterious folder in the network.

 

Problem solved. I set the location of Documents, Downloads, Music, Pictures, and Videos to my F drive. Some of those folders where left in the default location so I deleted them and the mysterious folders don't appear in the network tab.

 

Problem not solved. The mystery folders are in OneDrive folder . They are labelled Important 1 and Important 2. They contain music and documents. It seems Build 10586.3 trawls the hard drives and adds folders containing documents , pictures etc. to the network.

Strange behaviour.
