Folder Approval Status doesn't update with Workflow Action
-

Solution 2
The issue here was that after setting the status of the folder to Approved
I was then changing the workflow status, which functions as modifying the metadata for the folder. By switching the order and setting the workflow status before Approving, the folder now properly displays as Approved
when the workflow runs.
OTHER TIPS
You are using Content Approval and SharePoint Designer workflow with 2013 workflow platform type.
I have reproduced it.
You need to use the SharePoint workflow 2010 platform type instead. Per my testing results, it works.
