Windows 10: File explorer view from Save As dialogue

A colleague has asked from some assistance. In file explorer the navigation pane shows her mapped drives as drive letter, folder. However, when she invokes the save as dialogue from Word or Excel, the file explorer navigation pane within the Save As dialogue shows her mapped drives as folder, drive letter. Is there a setting to modify the navigation pane view visible in the Save As dialog so that it is consistent with the file explorer navigation pane showing drive letter, folder?
