  2. Quick Access bar

    Hi,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    We would be glad to help you with the issue you are facing today. I understand the difficulty.

    Remove items from Quick access.

    I would suggest you to follow the below steps.

    • Right click on the file or folder.
    • Select the option “unpin from the quick access”


    To pin items to an item already on the quick access bar.

    Follow the below steps.

    I would suggest you to create folder in the desktop screen & place all the files or folder which need to pin to the quick access.

    • Open the quick access.
    • Select the Desktop option.
    • Right click on the folder & select the option “pin to quick access”


    Hope this helps in resolving the issue. If the issue persists, do get back to us. We will be happy to assist you.



    Thank you.

    Laptops cannot access desktops via WIFI

    I have 3 desktops (all on Windows 10 1803) connected on my LAN. After following this forum for some times and did all the steps as suggested by forum member, access denied, all my desktops are able to view and access one another. I have a printer connected to PC1, and managed to connect all the other 2 PCs to have the shared printer.

    I also have 2 more laptops (both Asus with the same Windows 10 1803) connected via WIFI. Performed all the same steps as per the desktops, but I was not able to access PC1. I was able to view all the 3 desktops from the file explorer, but I just can't access all the desktops. However, I was able to access the Asus laptops from desktop PC1.

    Anyone able to assist on this matter? Any assistance is highly appreciated.

    How do I access desktop screen

    I CAN'T ACCESS MY DESKTOP

    Hello,

    I appreciate if you could answer few questions to narrow down the issue.


    • What build is installed on your computer?

    • When you say ‘unable to access desktop’, does that mean that the issue is with Start Menu desktop icons or the conventional desktop?

    • Are you trying to install the Steam app from Microsoft store or Third party website?

    • Are you facing any error message while trying to install ‘Steam’ app?

    It looks like you might either be in Tablet mode
    or have the Start Screen set to full and as a basic troubleshooting step, I suggest you to follow the steps given below:

    • Click the Action Center icon on the taskbar just to the left of the date/time. Do you happen to have the Tablet button selected? If yes, please unselect by clicking on ‘Tablet mode’ option to use
      your computer in desktop mode.

    • Click on Start Menu and choose
      Settings
      , Click on Personalization, select Start
      on the left pane, check if the "Use Start full screen" is on or off. It might be turned on, so perhaps toggling this option to off might help.

    Hope the above information helps. Kindly let us know if you need any further assistance with Windows. We are glad to assist you.

    Thank you.
