I also did check the properties of some of the weird files and nothing really stood out. Am now running a full scan with esetonlinescanner, also recommended by the Microsoft Help chat, about 1/4 of the way done with that and so far nothing (a few million files between all drives). Another test would be to see what happens after restart.Īfter speaking with Microsoft help, I ran a full scan with Microsoft's Safety Scanner tool at their recommendation - scanned everything (except my drives with my drive images) and it found nothing. I must be using something that causes new ones to get created after deleting those folders. But, I just deleted them and did nothing, and then used Chrome and Edge very briefly, but after about 15 minutes they still haven't created news ones.
What I noticed on my D drive is that when I remove the folders it usually creates 2 new ones within a few minutes - same for my E drive - both data drives. There are as of now 894 of these folders with about 9K of these files in File History for my D drive since 3/2018! (I'll probably delete them.) It might be harmless because I haven't noticed anything after all this time (or not).
I just looked at File History and noticed that this has been going on forever.starting back in 2018, which is when I set up this PC.
