Windows 10: Old Desktop folder didn't delete?

I recently moved some of my folders Downloads, Documents, Desktop, etc to another drive.I did it the proper way, right-clicking on the folder and selecting Properties > Location, and selecting Yes for "move all the files to the new location".Now in my C:\Users\Xeroc folder, my Downloads and Documents are no longer there. Issue is, there is still a folder named "Desktop". It no longer has the Desktop icon, so is probably just a regular folder.Inside this folder are MOST of the items that were there before. Some things seem to have been removed. My new Desktop folder is working perfectly fi

Trouble deleting a folder

Thanks for the suggestion but it says "delete folder failed for E:\....." for each folder I try.

*Confused

Will I be forever stuck with these unnecessary folders? *Oh Well hwell:

 

Deleted icons stay on desktop (not in desktop folder)

I can only suggest that you
1 Add a list of steps you have already taken.
2 Add a comment about restarting the computer. Do the deleted icons disappear then?
2 Add a comment explaining if any Desktop items do delete correctly and whether or not there are any significant differences between those that do delete correctly and those that don't.
3 Add a list of any OS tweaks you have done & any third-party OS-related utilities you have run.

I assume you have already reinstalled your display driver.
I don't see a Repair install as being relevant. Repair Install - TenForumsTutorials

Can't delete folder!

I used the old Alt+255 trick on a folder so that it had no name, but now that I want to delete it, and there's nothing in it, it WILL NOT LET ME DELETE IT. Why? *Bang Head :banghead: (I'm on Vista by the way)
