Windows 10: Is the folder "PlaceholderTileLogoFolder" located in the local file in appdata cause for...

The folder contains some jpg photos from a couple of apps seemingly various sizes of logos for said apps. I noticed some new photos appeared once I opened the photos app for the first time on this PC I believe. I've seen some conflicting information on various forums, but most suggest its a windows related file, but others say its potentially malicious. I would appreciate if I could get some extra confirmation, thanks!

Can anyone tell me what this folder is used for?

Here's the filepath:

C:\Windows\System32\config\systemprofile\AppData\Local\PlaceholderTileLogoFolder

Unrelated question: I get the BSOD about once per week at odd times. Lenovo X1 Carbon Thinkpad purchased about a year ago.

Thanks for any feedback you can give!

 

Vista Ultimate - 'User' Folder Location

No tried that.

Can copy the entire folder to D; but Windows still points to C as the location. Can change personal folders location to a folder on D;, but this still leaves hidden files etc on C;. Thus meaning there are 2 Users folders. Have managed to change the Public folder location to D;, with some registry tweaks, but this doesnt seem to work for the entire folder.

any more suggestions
