I'm not sure how these users got into my system or what's really happening. I'm trying to figure out how to remove them. Any advice would be appreciated. I'm not really sure how those TEMP users got in there.

Hello @EddieB1106,
If your computer name is <blank>OFFICE: , then the TEMP profiles appear to have been from an account getting signed into a temp profile.
Were you having any issues with your account getting signed in to a temp profile?
The .001 TEMP profile shows it was signed in to today at 6:53.
Usually, it's safe to just delete these TEMP folders. You'll only have an issue deleting one if it is currently in use.
I deleted the extra users but am leery of deleting the default user that is a "junction" do you see any problem with doing that? what is the all users "symlink"?
All Users and Default User are junctions that all installs of W10 should have. Do not delete them, they are necessary to support legacy software.
These were the actual names of the equivalent folders in Windows XP. You will also find junctions for My Documents, My Music, My Photos, etc. in your user folder for the same reasons.
