Windows 10: Removing icons from File Explorer navigation pane

Hi. I have some items in the navigation pane of Win10 file explorer that I can't seem to get rid of. They point to nothing.

When I right click them I have no option to delete.
Here is a screen shot of what happens when I try to open one.

Can anyone help me get rid of the one that says "Hunt Electric"?

File Explorer Navigation Pane Default Icons Have Changed

Hello! First time posting here.

I asked this question about a week ago on the HP community, and although a suggestion was offered, the problem persists.

I cannot give an exact date, but at some point my File Explorer Navigation Pane Icons changed from the default:





to this:





Notice they are folder icons with the unique icon picture 'overlay'

Brief history:

• I have had my HP Spectre x360 15 (4K touch display) for about 6 weeks.
• Initial file transfer was done using Windows (7) Easy Transfer (migwiz) which I have used on other machines without incident. Using the advanced selection; no settings were transferred, just Documents, Pictures, Music, Video.
• I do not use any outside themes; just experimented a few times using the built in HP themes.
• I have gone so far as to try overriding the current icons using the registry modifications mentioned in this Ten Forums post: Change Icons of Folders in This PC in Windows 10
• When I tried the suggestions in Option One, the only change which occurred was that the unique icon picture was removed and only the plain folder icon remained. Yet the registry entries outlined in Option 2 “Change Icons of Folders in This PC for All Users” all appear to be correct.
• There are no “exotic” programs on the computer – just Office 365, Adobe Photoshop/Premiere Elements, Bootstrap Studio, Inkscape, etc.

Purchased at the same time was an HP Envy x360 laptop which is almost identical in specifications and installed programs except it has a regular Full HD touch screen (1920x1080). The Navigation Pane icons there are the expected 'default' as shown in the second screenshot.

Any ideas what may have caused this and any suggestions how to get the default icons back?

 

How can I remove icons from the File Explorer navigation pane?

When I enable this option: File Explorer-->View-->Navigation pane-->Show all folders (checked)

My navigation pane looks like this:

It lists many items as being on my Desktop but none of them should be there because my Desktop is literally completely empty, I don't keep any files or folders or shortcuts on my desktop.

When I disable this option: File Explorer-->View-->Navigation pane-->Show all folders (not checked)

My navigation pane looks like this:

How do I get rid of the Dropbox and OneDrive icons? I don't want to uninstall them I just want to remove these icons. The top level of the navigation pane should be reserved for top level system icons not for any any folders that some program decides to
stick there.
