Two different user folders?
It seems like I have 2 users folders
One with path C:\Users\[username] and the other [username]
I only notice this if I pin the user folder to Quick Access.
Pictures attached.
Two different user folders?

its the same folder, quick access is just like a shortcut link to it .hence the name Quick Access . just right click on the 2 folder and go properties , then click location ,and you will see they are the same folder , and welcome to 10 forums ,enjoy

If they are the same location why do they show two different set of content. Is there a way for them to show the same.

just had a thought! maybe one is showing hidden files and one isn't , this only an assumption, I think maybe the quick access one will not show the hidden files

You have probably move the location of your Music, Documents and so on in different location.
C:\Users\[User1]... is folder on disk, while [User1] is sum of different locations. Like Library.
Possibly... not sure of course.

They will show the same, if you restore user file location. Look for tutorial by Brink :)
Now I looked again and saw, that your situation is reversed. Folders are shown in actual folder and not in library.
Look for Brink's tutorial nevertheless and try to restore default location.

Showing hidden files and folders didn't work.
All the paths were correct for the folders.
No dup users.

Sorry for the long wait for reply.
Were already set to default. I moved them and moved them back. Still the same issue.
I ended up just deleting and recreating everything. That got the most of the folders to show. Still missing 1 or 2 but arent ones I use anyways.
Still have the issue where clicking on my user folder in quick access bring me to This PC instead of c:\users\[un] but I think that is a limit of Windows 10 and nothing I can do about it.
