yes, they are on my DB as folders with my other folders on my desktop. Everytime I delete them, they come back. I have gone to the online DB and deleted from there, but they still come back.

there are no files within these folders. When I double click to open it, nothing happens.
These files only show up on 2 different computers. I have access to both and tried to delete on both, but they keep showing up again.
