    Hi Angge14,

    Thank you for reaching out. My name is Furkaan, a user just like you. I’d be happy to help you with your concerns. There are a couple of reasons why you might have a Japanese folder in your OneDrive even though you didn't create it yourself:

    Language Settings: Sometimes, if you log in to OneDrive from a computer set to Japanese or your Microsoft account region is set to Japan, OneDrive might create default folders in Japanese.

    Glitch: There have been instances where OneDrive creates folders in the wrong language due to a glitch.

    Here's what you can do:

    Check Language Settings: Review your Microsoft account language and region settings. You can change them to your preferred language if needed.

    Rename the Folder: If the folder is harmless and you don't need it, you can simply rename it to something in English.

    Clear OneDrive Cache: Clearing OneDrive's cached credentials can sometimes resolve these language issues.

    Contact Microsoft Support: If none of the above works or you're concerned about the folder, you can contact Microsoft Support for further assistance.

    If you have any additional questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Give back to the Community. Help the next person who has this issue by indicating if this reply solved your problem. Click Yes or No below. Best Regards, Furkaan
