Default USERS, Users, why two of these folders

This is one issue I'm having at the moment and cannot make any sense of it. Any ideas?

Have you tried tweaking your device?

Can you give me a hint on how to? I'm still trying to understand how this box works with the software that was included with it. Now, I find another problem. I try to rename a folder and it gives me an error. I'd sure like to know what I'm doing wrong? I'd insert the error message screen capture but don't know where to put it to give it a URL. Basically it states:

X:\Computer\C\Users\ME\DOCUMENTS\MISC\MISC-OTHER refers to a location that is unavailable. It could be on a hard drive on this computer, or on a network. Check to make sure that the disk is properly inserted, or that you are connected to the Internet or your network, and then try again. If is still cannot be located, the information might have been moved to a different location.

It's not unavailable as I can get to the folders and contents okay. and duh, the box is on the network. I'm just clueless with this stuff I keep coming up with. I really want to get my directory structure backed up on the box using Desktop Mirror. I'm hoping that it is not a lost cause though as I keep thinking about a post another person said and that was to just use explorer windows to sync with. But, that defeats the purpose of Mirror. If Mirror is defective, why hasn't there been any updates or fixes? Somehow I have to wonder if I started out on the wrong foot with this box in the beginning and not knowing how to use it correctly with the supplied software. Does that make any sense? Wouldn't you think if the software was published and included in the box, it would work as stated? Or, like I said, maybe I did it wrong?

Well, guess what. After re-reading the online documentation for the umpteenth time and stumbling over the browser bar, I now can pick and click on what Mirrored directories I want to view. For some weird reason I couldn't just click down through the directory structure with the Explorer window and find the folders and up to date files. I'm going to re-verify this because I can't believe this is really true.
Yes, I'm am only backing up certain folders with desktop mirror.
