Windows 10: User accouts in File Explorer

There were already two user accounts on my laptop when i started using it. Over time I've absorbed one and got it down to just two. It drives me crazy, programs are split between libraries There's multiple document/ picture/ music/download folders etcetera. So I tried to combine everything awhile back and...Not good. Everything was out of sync. Things would not communicate Its was a nightmare mapping out all the files and folder to their original location.

Is there anyway out of this without starting over. It would take months to reload this thing.

Cannot find Desktop Icon in File Explorer

Now that is interesting. If I do what you suggest, File Explorer Address bar changes to C:\Users\username\documents and the missing ICONS are there. But there is still not a "Desktop" folder.

Is this a step in the right direction?
