    OneDrive on File Explorer is always collapsed--this changed a few weeks ago. How do I set File Explorer to always expand the OneDrive folders in the Navigation Pane?

    :)

    organize file explorer/keep trees collapsed

    Is it possible to customize file explorer and change the order in which file trees appear?

    Also is it possible to force certain trees to always remain collapsed?

    Quick access is nice and this is useful most of the time, but between Quick Access, OneDrive, This PC, Network there are a lot of options that will force you to scroll quite a long ways.

    I think if I could start with everything collapsed that would solve all of my problems.

    If you can't start with everything collapsed, is it possible to move certain objects to the bottom? I do use one drive, but in my day to day it's not needed so I'd rather have it at the bottom of the list.

    Or if I could set "This PC" as the start page for file explorer, and then create a divider below devices and drives for Quick access, that would be perfect for me.

    Open / Save as dialog boxes - choose whether to expand or collapse as default

    Hi,



    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



    I understand that you would like to have a collapsed view of the items on the navigation pane of the File Explorer while saving a file. To do this, I would suggest you to try the steps listed below and see if it works.



    • Open File Explorer
      and click on the View tab.
    • Click on the drop down next to
      Navigation Pane and uncheck Show all folders.
    • Exit File Explorer
      and try saving a file now.


    Regards,

    File Explorer OneDrive collapsed

    File open or insert window shows collapsed folders only

    I right clicked and then left clicked on 'expand' in File Explorer and then restarted and brought up an open file window but there was no change. The list is still collapsed.
