Hi @lipsius,

I believe the easiest way to do this would be to remove the folders from the skeleton directory. You can read more about default files/folders in the OwnCloud documentation found here: https://doc.owncloud.org/server/8.0/admin_manual/configuration_files/default_files_configuration.html
