Continuous self opening replication of 'my files' or 'This PC' files

Hello. I am finding that everytime I start my pc laptop, without prompting, it begins to endlessly open new files from the 'This PC' or the 'My files' folders.
I have run every manner of BoostSpeed 13 tools, and checked updates which may have 'upset the apple cart', but I fairly ignorant of this stuff and it has got me 'stuffed' !
Any suggestions please. ? TIA

Add Folder (PIN) to Quick Access Not Working

I log into my laptop as local user ACS_LLC but when logged in it shows my email as mikewruth@gmail.com
I have run an elevated command prompt - commands ...
I ran "sfc /scannow", and it said "Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some of them".
I ran "DISM /Online /Cleanup-image /Scanhealth", and it said "No component store corruption detected".
I ran "CHKDSK C:", and it said "Windows has scanned the file system and found no problems".

When I get to the command prompt through the Recovery Window it opens as directory X: not C: and when I use the cmd X:/cd.. it does not show C: only X: drive letter
