What should I do with the first puzzle in Folgunthur?
There are 4 pillars. I match the pillars with the stones on the wall, but nothing happens.
I cleared the place without doing anything on that puzzle.
I read a bunch of walkthroughs and they don't mention this puzzle at all.
The first puzzle was already solved by Daynas Valen, the Dunmer who was looking to obtain the Gauldur Amulet after locating the Ivory Claw. When you first enter Folgunthur, the dungeon is clear of any obstacles or enemies up to when you find Daynas Valen's corpse, but from that point onward the tomb is completely uncharted, and you have to solve puzzles yourself.
