This method didn't work for me. I have an external drive that I previously used on another PC and seems nothing would remove the E:\WindowsApps directory or the orphaned junctions that were inside it. But after taking ownership from cmd line with "takeown /f E:\WindowsApps /r /d y" and then "icacls E:\WindowsApps /grant "COMPUTER\uname":F /t /q" (use your own computer or domain name and login of course), then I used Windows Subsystem for Linux (I have Ubuntu) and did "rm -r /mnt/e/WindowsApps" and the directory was finally deleted. I could then change where my content was saved in Settings/System/Storage and it worked.
Hey when I go to press change it says can access control editor unable to perform operation on an object that has no associated security does anyone know how to fix that?

I formatted the drive to Exfat and then used my phone to format it again to Exfat and then I used my PC to format it to NTFS. If I didn't use my phone for the second format and I just formatted it to NTFS the folders would reappear. Ugh!
