My user is missing from the user finder folder in 10.13.3 (17D102).

My user is missing from the user finder folder in 10.13.3 (17D102). I can still access these from login, but cannot see my user name (Globus Medical) in the USER finder folder. I have revisited my view settings, and everything seems in order.

As I use adobe products I am unable to choose the user folder to access the desktop, though I can access the files there if I use previously saved links in those programs.

Where is my user hiding, and why?

iMac, macOS High Sierra (10.13.3)

I suddenly have two folders with my user name , one with _1 and another with _1_2 suffixes. Can I suddenly have a duplicate folder under users. One has my name_1 and the other byname_1_2 though I have no idea why it suddenly appeared. I tried to delete one folder through the user panel in preferences but it only shows "byname". I can't delete the folder directly from the users folder, either. Having two folders seems to be be interfering with installing Topaz plugins, with messages of no directory found. Any ideas how I might be able to delete the duplicate user folder?

Users folder question... Hi, In my Users folder, there's a untitled folder with nothing in it. 1) Should that be there? 2) My brother said he has a Guest folder in his Users folder. I don't. Am I missing something? Thanks!
