Greetings, Linda Walsh!
I sometimes use "rmdir *" to clean up empty dir's.
There's a known issue about difference in Windows and *NIX handling of
directory removal in many cases.
I would say, you drop such practice and be more explicit in your actions.
I don't know what issue is such, but, you can try:
To print or delete empty directories only in present level try:
find ./ -maxdepth 1 -empty -type d -print
find ./ -maxdepth 1 -empty -type d -delete
To search or delete recursively folders only remove the maxdepth
find ./ -empty -type d -print
find ./ -empty -type d -delete
