Just wanted to comment saying this is still happening in May 2020.
Updated to 1903 but 'user'.000 now created and holds all my user files

Hi, as per the title. All my pre-update User files are now in a folder with ".000" added to the name. I've already run into problems with programs using the non .000 path e.g. Dropbox. Is there an easy fix for this?

2020-05-13T16:51:20+00:00 I tried everything, spend hours on the phone with MS. We would update and roll back. What finally worked was to uninstall Zune. Then the update worked without creating a problem with Outlook. MS no longer makes Zune available, but I was able to find an install on the Internet and reinstalled Zune.
