Microsoft have also posted an explanation. It apparently happened when known folder redirection was on, but files still existed in the old paths. This could happen, for example, when installing old versions of OneDrive. https://blogs.windows.com/windowsexperience/2018/10/09/updated-version-of-windows-10-october-2018-update-released-to-windows-insiders/

geocities.co.jp, the last living Geocities service, shuts down in 2020. Here's the timeline, as I understand it:
* March, 2019 - The ability to update existing pages and to create new pages ends.
* September 30, 2019 - All pages are taken offline. Site owners retain the ability to use FTP to download their site contents.
* March 31, 2000 - FTP access for downloading site contents is removed, and all data is deleted.
