    Removing folder from library without deleting it


    One of my folders appears in 2 libraries.
    If I delete the folder from the wrong library, it gets actually deleted from both libraries AND ALSO FROM MY "DOCUMENTS" and sent to the bin.
    How can I remove it from that wrong library but not from my Documents nor from my other library (I have Windows 10).
