Not sure what you mean by 'useless folders'. If you removed the junction folders from your home directory then that could be the source of your problems. They are flagged with the Hidden and System attributes to prevent that sort of thing happening. The things I'm talking about are the folders in the following image that have the T-junction overlay glyph:

You're on Windows 7 aren't you? I'm on Windows 10. It doesn't have that many folders. I mean folders like in my screen shot attached. Saved Games, Intel, Searches, Favorites, Links, contacts. They are useless to me. I don't use them. Windows 10 by default doesn't index the appdata folder. It only indexes the personal data by default and email. I removed the email. I don't use it.

I download a ton of stuff from the internet and Sim creators like to name their files in sentences. Sometimes I catch it sometimes I don't. I need to remember how to find files that exceed limitations because in some parts of the world operating systems don't suffer from filename character limits it seems.
