Removing Unique Folder Names

I recently set up my OneDrive Personal app to sync all my OneDrive folders. I have separate folders for audio and home videos, so I decided to relocate the Windows special folders 'Music' and 'Video' to these respective OneDrive locations. Initially, everything seemed fine in the left pane of File Explorer. However, upon expanding the right pane, I discovered that 'Audio' had been changed to 'Music' and 'Home Video' to 'Video'.

 

I managed to revert these locations back to their original settings without moving any files successfully. Strangely, 'Music' and 'Video' continue to show in OneDrive, despite opening them from the left pane of File Explorer or through the browser revealing their correct names 'Audio' and 'Home Video'.

 

Even my backup tool, Bvckup2, is reflecting the special folder names instead of the actual ones. It seems that something was not entirely reverted when I corrected the initial issue. I suspect that some registry editing might be necessary, but I am unsure which changes to make.

 

Fortunately, I have a system clone stored on another NVMe drive for safekeeping. Any guidance on this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your assistance.
