Windows 10? What music applications (if any) do you use?

What folder names and file names?

Do the folders and files appear along one particular path? Or truly random meaning the folders are everywhere....

Need some clues to identify the application creating the folders.

What extension on the filenames? .txt perhaps.

check task manager for mysterious processes....terminate anything odd/mysterious ASAP!

pull up CMD line, run as admin: type: MRT
a quick install (if not already) and scan with Malwarebytes, stat!
