Item filters do not work what so ever and chinese folders keep appearing in my poe 2 folder?

Ive been trying to get item filters to work and i can not for the life of me figure it out . It has to do with the chinese folders that keep sponateously generating in my poe 2 folder. Everytime i try to click on the folder where the filters should be stored it brings me to a new random chinese folder that changes everytime i relaunch the game . Syncing from filterblade and the poe website dont work either , instead i get a "failed to load file" type error. Has anyone else had this issue?
its ends up looking something like this (not my image)

Uhhhh, bruh what did you click.
yeah i know you're arguing with the other guy but this doesnt look good. if you dont want to provide more info at worst id be preparing my shit for a new windows install
the lazy first step is to repair/verify game files, then try again
