Ok. A couple of last comments and then I'm afraid it may be time to contact support.
Try changing a file that is in Evernote and then check your documents folder to see if the file is updated there. Add a new file to Evernote and see if it shows up in your documents folder. I'm a Mac user. Maybe this is something specific to Windows.
When you uninstall there is a question about it keeping data. Did you have it delete the data? It will then rebuild your Window's database.
Were they in your documents folder to start? Notes get copied into Evernote, not moved. Could these be your original files separate from your Evernote database?
What data path did it show before you changed it? Having Evernote documents in the documents folder is unusual. How were these files added? Were they scanned in?

You can get back to the old home by pressing the three line (hamburger) menu - My Widgets
The setting seems to stick for a while.
Under settings - applications - Evernote local data
This will move, I believe, your entire database and not just the attachments. You might want to check to see what that shows for you. I didn't think Evernote used the documents folder.
I agree. BS has made notable improvements but more can and should be done to improve speed and remove user friction. Keep pushing with bug reports and feature requests. They have priced this as a premium app, let's help push them there.
This was a setting that has been unfortunately removed. Some seem to get better performance with it enabled, and others not. The setting to change it needs to come back.
Ok, you are in list view, that is why I wasn't seeing this. I've seen mention of this issue before. This occurs because of long titles. Some want to see the full titles, others don't want the popup. Move your cursor to the right of the popup to make it disappear and allow the item under it to be visible.
It looks like I missed taco night ... damn.
