How to prevent extra folders from being created in my external SD card? I have an HTC desire 820s running on Kitkat 4.4.4.

I have set phone storage as my default write disk in Settings. However, when I open  ES file explorer, I always find that many folders named like ucbrowser, whatsapp, blackmart etc., have been created in my external card. Even when I delete them all and check after sometime, I find that they have been recreated.

Can you tell me how to stop these folders from getting created? I want them to be created in my internal SD card, not in external SD card.
In KitKat by default, non-system apps (for example Es file manager) cannot make changes to the external SD card outside of their data directory due to security policies.

To get around this issue, you can use your device's built in file manager to manage the external SD card.

If your device doesn't have a system file manager, you'll have to root the device to give Es full access to your storage.
