Windows 10: Issues With File System In Windows 10

Hello Microsoft Community,

I am facing several issues with the file system in Windows 10.


1 - When I search "Documents" in the search bar after pressing the Windows key, "Documents library privacy settings" comes up. Is it possible to set it to go directly to the folder when "Documents" is searched?

2 - Whenever a term is searched after pressing the Windows key, for example "statistic", can I set it to locate a folder called "Statistics"?

3 - How can I find out what label my flash drive is? (F:, G:, etc.)


And I am trying to delete some posts on the Microsoft Community, but I am getting the error message: "Sorry the request couldn't be completed. Please try again later."


Any help will be appreciated.


Thanks.

:)

 

Windows 10 Tweaks

Pressing “Windows+Pause Break” (it’s up there next to scroll lock) opens the “System” Window.

Windows 10: In the new version of Windows, Explorer has a section called Quick Access. This includes your frequent folders and recent files. Explorer defaults to opening this page when you open a new window. If you’d rather open the usual This PC, with links to your drives and library folders, follow these steps:

• Open a new Explorer window.
• Click View in the ribbon.
• Click Options.
• Under General, next to “Open File Explorer to:” choose “This PC.”
• Click OK
