"I too had the same issue. I discovered that media player was the source of
the reappearing folder. At one time, I ripped a CD to a folder on my
desktop. I have since deleted this folder, but discovered that everytime
media player opened, the folder would reappear. Evidently when media player
cannot resolve the path, it will recreate the folder structure rather than
throw an exception.
In any case, my fix was to adjust the media player options and reset the
folder path to something else.
Hope this helps,
Brian
