    Download folder in Win 10 gives this error when tried to open


    Whenever I double-click my Downloads folder, I get this error message.

    I will have to connect my K: drive hard disk to prevent this error.

    How do I restore it back to work normally without having to connect the K: drive?

    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
