All pictures from Camera Roll, Whatsapp etc are being duplicated in 'Recent' folder. How can I stop this. Also folders created in Camera App for downloaded Telegram & Facebook pics seem to have disappeared 😞

Photos are not physically duplicated, you can think of Recents folder as a quick access folder. 

You can hide the Recents folder.

Gallery > Settings > Select albums to show ( toggle it on).

Go back to the mainstream of Gallery app > Click on the 3 dots in the top right corner > Select albums yo show > uptick Recents.

I hate the 'RECENT' folder. How can I get rid of it ?

I didn't ask for it and I don't want it.

Sorry this doesn't work.  If I can't delete the whole folder permanently,  can I at least empty it?
