These files are hidden system files.  Microsoft does not expect you to
delete, move or even see these files.  At some point, you must have
changed your settings to show hidden and system files (not recommended). 

To hide these files again, do the following: 

1.  Open Windows Explorer to the folder where these files are located. 

2.  Press Alt + t, to go to the Tools menu.  Use the up arrow once to
the "Folder Options..." item and hit Enter. 

3.  Press Control + Tab to go to the "View" page.  Tab until you get to
the tree view of options. 

4.  Arrow down to the "Hide protected Operating System files
(recommended)" option. 

5.  If you want these new settings to be applied to all similar folders,
then press Shift + Tab twice to back up to the "Apply to folders"
button, and hit Space to activate. 

6  Continue to hit Tab until you reach the OK vutton and press Space to
close the dialog.
