    Sole User and not showing under ThisPc/C/Users


    Instead of myself, what I have under Users, is a folder that I had from windows 7 in my network. It was Users/Desktop/MyBaby.
    When I upgraded to Win10 it added that under Users. My name is nowhere in that win 10 Users folder. I just downloaded the 'Take Ownership' script that's available for download and I noticed that it used User Desktop/MyBaby as owner.
    How do I remedy this?
    I am the sole user of this pc, and under Accounts, there is just myself as Admin.

    Yea I had something similar happen to me and I had two users with the same files. even after I set up a new account with my Microsoft account and deleted the old one It was really weird. I ended up having to reinstall windows ten. Luckily it happened sooner than latter. Now I have noticed that I have only one user account but two profiles. My normal one and another called default. If I figure it out ill post it here
