You're experiencing issues with your 1909 build, starting with a 0x800704c7 error and now shifting to 0x80070652. It's really annoying when you have to wait for automatic updates or manually delete large files.

The ProgramData directory holds program-related information such as configurations and saved files. Removing it is usually not recommended.

Did you check the image clearly? It appears in the same directory within the Application Data folder multiple times.

It's a link or symlink that isn't set up correctly... it doesn't occupy physical space on your storage, just showing a small size like 5 GB or similar. It acts as a shortcut in the path C:\users\[your username]\Application Data, which points to itself, so each click displays the contents of the base folder. You might be able to resolve it using SysInternals Suite's junction.exe or by running rmdir via the command line on that directory... but it could be risky since it's a protected or system folder, and making changes might cause issues.
