    File Explorer no long accessible on my Windows 11 new computer.


    I was working on changing and deleting files after transferring files from old to new computer. I thought I had duplications and deleted some of the file structure in File Explorer. When I closed File Explorer and tried to reopen it, it would not open and gave me an error. I may have deleted a crucial folder and ergo screwed File Explorer. First thought was unpinning it might fix it and I'd repin from the apps. However, I can't find file explorer anywhere. I don't know what to do. None of the apps work now that need to get file info. Can I download a new copy???

    :)

    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
