Windows 10: user folder full of users 00x numbered folder

Hi,
I wander why my users folder is full of folders with numbers users name.
This is a view of it.
What's the reason for them?
Can't I delete some?
Or
I dual boot with Linux, under Linux can't I backup the folder and keep only some "latest" user version?

Vista Ultimate - 'User' Folder Location

No tried that.

Can copy the entire folder to D; but Windows still points to C as the location. Can change personal folders location to a folder on D;, but this still leaves hidden files etc on C;. Thus meaning there are 2 Users folders. Have managed to change the Public folder location to D;, with some registry tweaks, but this doesnt seem to work for the entire folder.

any more suggestions

Hi,

Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

You are trying to rename the User folder, which can’t be done through the File explorer. Whatever user name you use of your User account, user account folder will have same name. You can rename the Subfolder of the User account folder but not User
account folder.
