Does this help?
btw the MAIN folder is Pictures, not My Pictures and
ALSO I am planning by weeks end to put most all my photography on DVD for storage.

Looks like "My Pictures" of older windows is now just "Pictures" folder in W10. Same as the "My Pictures" in older window systems applies. Notice it claims just one "file". That is no doubt the link to where the pictures are actually stored. When you clk on the "Pictures" folder, does it have some option to add other folders "into" it?

When you try to add a folder, does it let you do so directly, or have you "browse" to the added folder? If the latter, then it's adding a symlink into the "Pictures" folder instead, and means of course the actual folder itself is elsewhere, or if not, then the symlink still existes pointing to a non existent folder. Right clk on the "camera roll " folder and find out where it really is in the properties of it. You can then go there and remove it, if that's what you want. If it still then shows as a symlink in the "Pictures" folder, you can remove the link then.

The 'official' My Pictures folder is sometimes called Pictures and sometimes My Pictures, depending on what program you use to look at it. No problem at all, not important at all.

I fully agree with what Proffitt said. Don't mess with what Windows does, don't care about what it does, just make your own folder (with subfolders as you see fit) to store your pictures on whatever drive you want and name it what you want.

I shouldn't use DVD (or external hard disk, or USB-stick, or even the cloud) as storage. I'd use it only for backup and save all you want to save on two folders on two different PC's (one original, one backup) in your home network. Use DVD or external only for things you don't mind to lose.

one last question. I thought of changing the name of the camera roll folder, as well. Basically it feels like a bug, a fly, and just bugs me. It isn't bad or..................... just an author, photographer, artist. and thank you all. I really admire computer people. YOU GRASP ALOT MORE about this than i do. HEY if anyone ever wants prayer, i will pray for you. Lots get healed and even dream interpretations. Yes I am on facebook. GOD BLESS Great Blue Heron piercing Blue Gill
