Just to close this off. The duplicated folders have 'disappeared' - so everything is working fine again. I haven't done anything more than what was said in this thread. The only thing I can put it down to is that I usually hibernate the laptop overnight, but yesterday I shut the laptop down completely and rebooted. SO maybe some 'temporary' file was cleared?
Thanks to all for the help and advice.
