I'm running Windows 10 version 1511 (build 10586.63). Windows is installed on my SSD (drive C:) and my hard drive (F:) is used for holding various data.
This evening I noticed that drive F: contains - what appears to be - an exact copy of my user profile in a folder named Documents and Settings, and it seems to be linked to my user profile folder in C:\Users. For example, if I rename a file in either location, that change is also reflected in the other folder. The below screenshot shows the properties of the folders - as you can see, they are pretty much identical.
The date of creation is the date I updated to build 10586, so I'm guessing it has something to do with the November update of Windows 10, but I've been unable to find any info on this.
Can anyone explain what is going on here? Is this folder some sort of "backup" of my user profile?
