    Libraries "Camera Roll" and "Saved Pictures" keep resurrecting!


    The library entries just wont stay the way I leave them. I have just arranged my libraries and deleted the two mentioned folders, then they appeared againd and made a mess of my tasbar... *Sad This is a serious problem because of how I use the library folder structure on the taskbar.
    like this:

    Why do Music Pictures Videos Camera Roll keep appearing in Libraries win11 29580d1485954026t-libraries-camera-roll-saved-pictures-keep-resurrecting-ok.jpg

    I would like to ask for a method to prevent "Camera Roll" and "Saved Pictures" library entries from constantly regenrate - and thus make a mess of my library toolbar
    like this:

    Why do Music Pictures Videos Camera Roll keep appearing in Libraries win11 29581d1485954026t-libraries-camera-roll-saved-pictures-keep-resurrecting-bad.jpg

    maybe there is some app that generates them that I could uninstall? or is there a system folder or registry entry for libraries that I could make read-only, thus preventing the two entries from appearing there?
    Ah and even after spending some two hours with purging those darn folders in This PC folder, suddenly the "pictures" folder just appeared there... I am starting to give up on this OS...

    any help would be appreciated... thanks

    Oh, That's a new one for me... I took a look to see what you meant(I use the Desktop toolbar too, but only to show the recycle bin).

    Is this basically what's happening:

    Camera roll/pictures library are missing

    Hi Darren,

    Missing folders or files can be caused by system file corruption or when a user is signed in with a temporary profile. For us to properly assist you in recovering the Camera Roll folder and Pictures library, we'd like to confirm the following information:

    • Have you checked if you are logged in with your own account and not a temporary profile?
    • Have you made any recent changes to your device prior to this happening?
    • Do you remember modifying any settings on how you view your files and folders?
    • Have you recently installed any updates?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far?

    Let us know these details so we can move forward to resolving your concern.
