Unable to delete folder, see pic

When the folder(s) are clicked are there files within the folder or are they empty?
What happens with folder deletion after deleting all files within the folders?

Here's the image of what I see. Nothing I can delete. Any way to fix this?

Have you rt-clicked on the Pictures folder and selected 'properties' (sorry, I forgot the select bit last time)? When you do, you will see a little 'box' with a list of the folders 'in' the library. Two of them should be your broken ones. Remove them from the library using the 'remove' button, like so:

You could wonder where the offending folders have gone, but that's another issue!

See if you can find the folder using administrative command prompt or safe mode with command prompt.

How To Delete a Folder Using Command Prompt of Windows

Years ago, when I had the same problem as the OP does, the only solution was to use Linux. The folders, created by POP Peeper, could not be deleted, hidden, and renamed. However, their parent folder could be hidden and renamed but not deleted.

I now suggest that you start a new thread called something like Non-existent folders shown in Library - how to delete the false entry. This would be a good course of action because you have now identified that you are not dealing with difficult-to-delete folders but with false Library entries. --Denis

Ahhh... Excellent. Now I understand the situation better and will proceed with your recommendation soon. Thx!
